16.04 USB stick windows not persistent?





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}







2















My settings, docs and such on an older 14.04 USB stick are persistent, but the 16.04 stick seems to reset with each reboot.



I made a USB stick following the directions here: https://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows



and using the rufus installer.



Is there a way to configure this install so that my work stays on the stick?



Thanks!

If you want to make a Persistent USB stick try mkusb, UNetbootin or MultiBootUSB, not Rufus, they will all make persistent drives however mkusb will make persistent partitions greater than 4GB, and MultiBootUSB will allow multiple persistent O/S installs.

    You can make a syslinux install like Rufus persistent by hand, obtain a casper-rw file, drop it on the USB root and add <space>persistent after -- in the txt.cfg file of grub.cfg file. but it will be limited to 4GB of persistence and making a new drive with mkusb is easier and there is no 4GB limit.

You can backup the content of the casper-rw file and after making a new persistent live system with mkusb, you can restore it to the new casper-rw partition. It might work.

Rufus Persistent Pendrive install



That works with both BIOS and UEFI



Rufus does an OK job of installing Ubuntu Live to USB.
It works with both BIOS and UEFI.
It does not do Pesistent installs out of the box.



Many people prefer a Persistent pendrive that will save changes.




  • Create a Live pendrive using Rufus.


  • Boot the Rufus pendrive toram to make the drive editable, (press shift when booting, press Esc from language, press F6, press Esc, type {space}toram after "quiet splash ---", and press Enter.



  • Create a casper-rw file:



    sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=casper-rw bs=1M count=512



    sudo mkfs.ext3 -L casper-rw -F casper-rw




(where count=512 is persistence size, with max 4GB).




  • Move the new casper-rw file from home to the root of the Live Pendrive.


  • Edit /isolinux/txt.cfg, (for BIOS boot persistence) and /boot/grub/grub.cfg, (for UEFI boot persistence), add a space and the word "persistent" after "quiet splash ---".


  • Shut down and reboot the persistent drive.



*Casper-rw partitions do not work with Rufus.

        Rufus Persistent Pendrive install



        That works with both BIOS and UEFI



        Rufus does an OK job of installing Ubuntu Live to USB.
        It works with both BIOS and UEFI.
        It does not do Pesistent installs out of the box.



        Many people prefer a Persistent pendrive that will save changes.




        • Create a Live pendrive using Rufus.


        • Boot the Rufus pendrive toram to make the drive editable, (press shift when booting, press Esc from language, press F6, press Esc, type {space}toram after "quiet splash ---", and press Enter.



        • Create a casper-rw file:



          sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=casper-rw bs=1M count=512



          sudo mkfs.ext3 -L casper-rw -F casper-rw




        (where count=512 is persistence size, with max 4GB).




        • Move the new casper-rw file from home to the root of the Live Pendrive.


        • Edit /isolinux/txt.cfg, (for BIOS boot persistence) and /boot/grub/grub.cfg, (for UEFI boot persistence), add a space and the word "persistent" after "quiet splash ---".


        • Shut down and reboot the persistent drive.



        *Casper-rw partitions do not work with Rufus.
