Live Session Persistence test for Natty failed

[Glen Ditchfield]

I used usb-creator-gtk on a Lucid computer to create a live USB stick from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/daily-live/20110202/natty-desktop-i386.iso, selecting the option to create a persistence area with the default 128MB size.

I booted an HP Elitebook 8440p from the stick, connected wirelessly to the Internet, installed Firefox, visited some web sites, created a file in ~, moved the uBlog widget, and rebooted.

After the reboot, I had to recreate the wireless settings and reinstall Firefox. Firefox did not remember the previously visited sites, the file in ~ was gone, and the uBlog widget was back where it started.

This is not precisely the test case described in dls-003, but the Wiki page it links to (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCD/Persistence) suggests that usb-creator should create a working persistent USB key.
