Is there anyway I can use xbmcbuntu on my usb stick, add all my settings and supported applications(ie sickbeard, couchpotato etc) and have all of this saved to a persistent USB stick? I would like to have everything configured and saved on one usb stick and then copy it and plug it into various pc's around my place. If this is not possible, then can I install xbmcbuntu to a HDD, add all my apps and settings and then somehow copy this HDD with all its settings to an external HDD?
Thanks

^ hi, i tired loading xbmcbuntu on a 4 gb usb disk and set unetbootin to create a 3 gb persistent overlay but my changes didnt survive a reboot.
is there any suggestions on what i can do to track down the issue.
edit... i just reformatted the drive as fat32 and used unetbootin to create a 2 gb persistent overlay. now my changes survive a reboot.
it seems that unetbootin has a limitation where it cant make a persistent overlay for ext2 drives.
