I've used the overlay persistent storage, that has a problem that once you run out of overlay it tends to freeze (or did in the past). It's possible to create the image with home on an actual filesystem on the USB, can't remember if this shows up as a partition or is an image file, if a partition then it would be simple enough for someone to find and copy a project off the attached USB after an install. > Jack sample settings could also give a bad impression if they're not the > same either when they reboot. plughw could work here, but it's really the installed system setup that would need to be tweaked. -- imalone http://ibmalone.blogspot.co.uk _______________________________________________ music mailing list music@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/music
