Re: Error on building trixie live iso with persistency

Hi Hans,

Have you looked at the Debian live manual? It is comprehensive and has a good 
section on persistence [1] - it is likely more up to date than that post, 
however I appreciate it's much longer!

The post you're copying from looks like it takes a convoluted path towards 
building things - I am quite familiar with the process and the

Ok, im no expert on live-build, Im just working on my own design. So 
these are just some things I noticed.


The post your trying to follow is over 11 years old, Ive noticed that a 
lot has changed and many times those old posts are no longer accurate.

Though I cant speak to this one as Ive not tried it.

I will say that you put package lists in 
config/package-lists/.list.chroot and it is just a list of 
packages to install.


I not sure about the bootloader parameters, I reworked the whole 
config/bootloaders for my own needs.


With that said, you are welcome to look at how im doing things i my
