Download the Fedora-Security-Live x86_64-31-1.9/iso file from https://labs.fedoraproject.org/security/download/index.html

When installed using the following livecd-iso-to-usb command lines an encrypted, writeable partition for the $HOME directory will be created as well as an overlay filesystem for persistent data across the rest of the system. The sizes specified for these spaces can be worked out through trial-and-error as the command will display available storage details when too much storage space is requested.
