Persistent Linux system on USB and/or SD?
#2
I think this depends on if it was built into the kernel/initrd. I used to use this to run multiple live systems from the same EFI partition and the persistent storage on its own partition. I ran Kali, Remix OS and ParrotSec OS this way on the older MacBooks (2008).

Take a look at how other live Linux CDs boot configurations (grub.conf / syslinux.conf / etc) to get an idea of how they made it work.

From my experience, this took a lot of trail and error. I haven't looked at the post you linked yet, I'll check it out soon.
Working as a Film Electric and I have been using Linux since around 2002. 
Like to play with Python and Jupyter Lab/Notebooks when not going to the park with my baby girl.
