+Add a suffix when searching for the image filenames or partition labels to use for the above mentioned persistent feature, the SUFFIX will be added after a dash (e.g.: "live-sn" would transform to "live-sn-SUFFIX"). This is handy to test multiple live-boot based live-systems with different persistent storage choices.
