I'm not sure what you're trying to do.  You should just do

   notebook(directory="thedir")

after you setup the USER (HOME?) variable and permissions.  It sounds
like you're doing the right thing.

Makes sense, because you don't have a HOME directory
maybe. ?

No.  You might be the first to use the notebook in such a deamon
mode.

You might be the first to use the notebook in a daemon mode.
What's the canonical way to terminate a twistd deamon?  That's
all that the sage notebook is running as.    You might want to
read a little about using twistd, which is the twisted daemon.
When the notebook runs it just does so by running twistd with
some parameters.
