Re: [arch-general] creating an archlinux usb key with persistence

Salutations, Do you know how stable F2FS is (the Phoronix benchmarks don't tell us anything about data permanence)? Regards, Mark On Thu, Mar 13, 2014 at 8:04 AM, Øyvind Heggstad <mrelendig@har-ikkje.net>wrote:

Hi,

Are there instructions for creating an archlinux usb key with persistence somewhere?

I want to use my archlinux usb key as a diagnostic tool, and sometimes it is helpful to save files to it for later review.

Any info would be appreciated.

BTW: I am planning on using a 64gb usb key for this endeavor.

Just create a extra partition on the usb stick and format it as f2fs or whatever. There you go, persistent storage.
