no warning when saving in a place that survives a restart normally, but now doesn't as you're running the liveCD

[steltenpower]

- what if you don't know you're running a liveCD (the sysadmin might have put it in, you're a noob), or you just forgot, then a restart can throw away some important data (docs on the desktop for example)

And about it being for temporary use:
- Some people carry liveCDs with them to override the OS of machines that are not their own
- The installer of the liveCD crashes on partitioning, which is why i have been using the liveCD longer than i would have liked
