I tried once and got no response so I am trying again. It is strange
that people understand all such obscure things but can't explain one of
the many gobbledygook statements made in the release notes.
In section 2.2.6 of the F10 release notes is the following statement:
Support for keeping a persistent /home with the rest of the system
stateless has been added for Fedora 10.
I don't understand that statement? Could someone explain it, especially
the meaning of the words persistent and stateless in that context.

My (possibly confused) understanding,
Stateless: After installation, the system will run without modifying any
files. It could be installed on a CD-ROM or other read only storage.
Persistent /home: /home can be installed on writable storage (in
combination with a read-only /).
All this is for a live-cd that has a writable /home.
