Thank you, thank you.
Finally, I'm able to see that changes will "persist" after the
reboot of an XO, which was booted off an USB stick.
It was a long struggle to get this working - but with the help of
the participants on the fedora-olpc-list it ended successfully.
Thanks: Chris, Mathieu, Jerry, everyone.
