OpenSuSE 10.3 live USB !!!!!

Hi all
I just made a Open SuSE live USB using the instructions here
*en.opensuse.org/Live_USB_stick

Its persistant by default. Posting from my live distro now.

How Much Size????

? I used a 1 GB USB stick

In the article above, see Key learnings

Kiwi partitions the live USB stick (e.g., 1 GB sda) as follows:

* /dev/sda1 /media/disk ext2 rw,nosuid,nodev 0 0 (21.3MB primary type=83 bootable)
* /dev/sda2 /ro_branch squashfs ro 0 0 (708MB primary type=83)
* /dev/sda3 /rw_branch ext2 rw 0 0 (310MB primary type=83)

Note well that the main 700 MB compressed filesystem is not a file in a vfat partition, but rather it is a partition itself!

Also note that the stick is set up in a "persistent" way per default, so that changes are written back to the USB stick at /dev/sda3 which contains also packages and stuff that doesn't fit into the 700+ MB initrd.
