We will have to edit the hardcoded limit down to 256 mb. Since the OSGeo Live iso (mini) takes 3.2gb of the available 3.7gb vFAT partition on a 4gb USB drive, we only have 545 megabytes free and the "Select persistence size" slider remains greyed out. The USB System Disk Creator tool that comes with Ubuntu 12.04 has a minimum persistent disk size of 1024 megabytes.

Persistent install with a 4gb USB drive OSGeo Live 6.0 Then click the check(tick) mark icon on the top toolbar. Change it to "OSGeoLive60" (max 11 chars). Right click on the partition line and select the option for Label. In the main bar you should see 4000 MB total for a 4gb USB drive. From the pull down list of drives in the top right select the one noted above as the USB drive. Then start the Gparted tool from the Applications → Settings menu. The USB drive might be mounted to a place like /dev/sdf1. Open a terminal, type "mount" to show the mounted partitions. Note: if doing it manually, the target vFAT partition must have the bootable flag set. The System Disk Creator tool will do this for you if you click the "Erase Disk" button. This assumes that there is already an empty 4gb vfat (0C) partition on the USB drive.
