I recently made a Mint live USB stick with persistent storage using Linux Live USB Creator.
When I try to boot from the USB stick, it fine if I select the Grub option "Live mode" but fails if I select "Persistence mode".



The output it gives looks like this:



Begin: Loading essential drivers ... done.
Begin: Running /scripts/init-premount ...

BusyBox v1.22.1 (Ubuntu 1:1.22.0-15ubuntu1) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

(initramfs) [ 31.968566] ACPI Warning: _SB.PCIO-PEGO-VID-_DSM:Argument #4 type mismatch - Found [Buffer], ACPI requires [Package] (20160422/nsarguments-95)
[ 31.986683] ACPI: _SB_.PCIO.PEGO.VID_: failed to evaluate _DSM
(initramfs) [ 31.968566] ACPI Warning: _SB.PCIO-PEGO-VID-_DSM:Argument #4 type mismatch - Found [Buffer], ACPI requires [Package] (20160422/nsarguments-95)


followed by suspending console etc.



Some additional information:

The USB stick has two partitions:

Partition 1: 16.9 Gb, FAT32, Mint is installed on this partition.

Partition 2: 12Gb, ext4, labelled "casper-rw", supposed to be the persistent storage.



According to the tutorials found online on creating a Live USB Stick with more than 4Gb of persistent storage, I deleted the casper-rw file which was created by LiLi USB Creator on partition 1.



Does anyone know what causes this problem and how to fix it?



[EDIT] It boots fine with persistence if I use the casper-rw loopback file which, sadly, limits the persistent storage to 4gb.

          After a lot of digging, I found the information that this problem exists since version 17.3 (I think it said this was because of an underlying ubuntu update but I'm not quite shure).
          Therefore I tried the same process with Linux Mint 17.2 and it worked without any problems.
