Hello Peter!
It finally works! Got a working F16/Sugar V6 with persistence booting on my MacBookAir, late 2008 from usb. 
Sorry, I am not the kind of low-level, deep into it Linux-Guy. The Problem was the grub root= parameter. I prepared my Sticks with liveusb-creator on a fedora 15. This parameter was set to the name of the .iso - File: wrong. Should be the name of the usb volume. 

ANYWAY: Great! And I am really happy!
Regards,Raffael
