I have tried to enable persistence again, making sure I was doing what you suggested above. I am currently using today's build - Sept 26 2012, and I am still unable to get persistence going. Confirmed that I have a file on my USB stick called casper-rw. Confirmed that I am passing the arguement 'persistent' to the kernel on bootup by pressing F6 and adding it to the command line. Confirmed that on my USB stick there is an ext3 file system. The files "lost and found" and "casper-rw" exist within it.
I have also tried the program Startup Disk Creator from the Lubuntu Software Centre. That didn't correctly provide persistence either, even though I had moved the slider over to 3.5 Gig. It won't boot on my MacBook because of the EFI boot system Apple Uses, however I expected that. The computer I'm doing for all of this is a 2008 MacBook - with Intel core duo 2.4 Ghz. 4 Gigabytes of RAM and a 250 Gigabyte internal hard drive, all of which is devoted to Lubuntu testing. When I want OS X Lion, I have it on an external USB drive. The only place I've been able to get persistence to work on my Windows computer (Win 7) and run Ubuntu 12.04 from a live CD. Then I run Startup Disk Creator there. There I can browse files, change the desktop, change the settings on my browser, browse a few pages, write a short text file and save it to the desktop, and everything was preserved as it should be.
