As I said earlier, you could do what I did a couple months back:
boot up the live CD, and do an install with the usb stick as your
target drive. that gives you a normal fedora that boots from usb
with no writing restrictions, unlike the live-on-usb mechanism does.
I used an 8 Gb stick... someone said it won't install on a 4GB stick
since it isn't really quite 4 Gigs, and the live-cd installer wants
a min of 4 gigs.
I, being paranoid, disconnected the hard drives before doing that just
to make sure I didn't accidentlly install over what was already on them.
(having accidentally formatted my 500 GB usb drive that was the backup
of some important stuff, a few months ago, when I MEANT to format a
usb flash stick.)
