[Discuss] Persistent mode with Mandriva live CD

I wonder if anyone knows how to make the Mandriva live CD persistent. 
This is easy with Knoppix, difficult with Kubuntu, and I have been 
unable to find anything that would tell me how to do it with Mandriva.  
Has anyone discovered an easy to do this?

The reason I am trying Mandriva is that it is the distribution I have 
found that actually detects my wireless card and lets me configure it to 
access my secure wireless network without any difficulty at all.

I don't want to actually install in on my laptop until I can be certain 
that I can find a way to do it that does not touch the MBR (I would want 
to boot from either CD or USB Flash Drive using the built in Boot Manager).

Thanks for any help.

Murray
