A persistent usb live Linux larger than 4GBs with Ubuntu doesn't recognize casper-rw partition.
I proceeded to configure boot (fat32, 2GB) and casper-rw (ext2, 30GB) partitions on the pendrive. Then I install with Netbootin the iso image checking the persistence option. Then I delete the casper-rw file, so that the OS recognizes the casper-rw 30GBs partition as the persistent space, but this doesn't happen. The system boots without any issue, but the disk manager doesn't show the 30GBs partition as a part of the OS, but it just recognizes the 2GBs boot partition. As a proof, a 2.5GBs file download ends up in a "insufficient space" alert. I even did a chmod to change the owner of the casper-rw partition from root to Ubuntu, with the same unsuccessful result. Any hint of what might be happening? Any solution?
