Hello Ironfighter,

the following link explains how the usb with persistence for 32 Bit Linux is limited to a size of 4Gb total.
It also explains how to increase the available/usable space on the USB by creating a partition, like you wish to do.

No replies so perhaps this question has been answered 100X elsewhere? or its just a stupid question?  Either way I would appreciate some feedback.

I have just installed version 3.8 on a 16G Toshiba USB drive with 4G of persistence. 

When I look in my Documents folder it shows I have only 2.4G of persistence available.
Is this because I have installed additional software - eg: Spotify?

If so is there a way for such additional programmes to be installed in the remaining space on the "non persistent" area of the drive?
