Hi!
I want my live usb to keep my apps, configurations and settings. How do I add persistent storage to the usb stick so that I can keep those? Thanks.

Install to the USB as if it were a HDD and format ext4

You will need two USBs. Plug them both into the PC and boot the one with the installation media. Choose Install Android-x86 to hard disk. You will get a list of partitions, at the bottom you should find the two USBs Choose the correct one as target, format to ext4, Yes to Grub and Yes to system read/write. After syncing to disk you can reboot into the target USB
