So this makes me wonder ...

Why as part of the live cd creation process, don't we use resizee2fs to shrink
the image down to used space (2.1G) + overlay size?  We could then use the
extra space for /home and swap.  Right now mounting the NAND for /home is
horrible as it takes a very long time, so getting rid of that would be a huge
bonus (plus it would move all the Fedora bits to the SD card, which would be
better IMHO).
