I figure it would be easy to do. During boot, scan for a partition with a given label, say, "fedoralivehome". If present, that partition gets mounted as /home. As a consequence, all user settings and documents are kept across boots. An usb stick could be partitioned to have the second partition as /home. Does this idea make sense?I've thought about it before, the problem ends up being that you really don't want to use, eg, a fat filesystem for the home directory which makes it a little trickier.
I think it's ok to require an ext2/ext3 filesystem for fedoralivehome. Kai
