"To include a persistent filesystem for /home, use the --home-size-mb parameter. For example:
su -c "livecd-iso-to-disk --home-size-mb 2048 Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-34-1.1.iso /dev/sdX"
This will create a 2 GiB filesystem that will be mounted as /home each
time the stick is booted, allowing you to preserve data in /home across
boots.
If it's something you're giving away, you will probably want the
"--unencrypted-home" option as well.
To enable 'data persistence' support - so changes you make to the
entire live environment will persist across boots - add the --overlay-
size-mb parameter to add a persistent data storage area to the target
stick. For example:
su -c "livecd-iso-to-disk --overlay-size-mb 2048 Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-34-1.1.iso /dev/sdX"
where 2048 is the desired size (in megabytes) of the overlay. The
livecd-iso-to-disk tool will not accept an overlay size value greater
than 4095 for VFAT, but for ext[234] filesystems it is only limited by
the available space."
I have no idea when is the last time anyone tested this.
I use this regularly, at least once per release.
