I need to preserve a key file for SSH'ing to a machine so I can run an rsync over the internet.  I know when I reboot the file will get deleted.  I toyed with saving the file on a share and then copying on boot in the  go file.  Is there a place on the USB boot drive that I can preserve files and put them in their proper place?

 

Thanks!

You can put it anywhere on the flash drive... the contents of the flash drive are not in RAM.  You will still need to copy the files from wherever you put them to the correct folder and then maybe restart the service.
