That seems like too much work, so after playing around, I have found
that downloading a prerelease LiveUSB, enabling data persistence, and
then doing "yum update" will get you a daily Rawhide-enabled LiveUSB
image.  Or at least it would except I encountered some space limitations
and some bugs which have sidetracked my component testing.  But it seems
like something which should work and if it doesn't people should file
bugs about it.  So, I've updated advice for testers to list it as an
option:
