tails-persistence-setup fixes the system partition attributes after
udisks messes them up:
https://tails.boum.org/todo/usb_install_and_upgrade/todo/#index4h2

To fix things by hand:

  for i in 2 60 62 63 ; do
     sgdisk /dev/YOUR_STICK --attributes=1:set:$i
  done


(e.g. YOUR_STICK=sdc)

Cheers,
