Hmm... maybe make paramName= a more meaning one, e.g., persistentTag or something? Actually, I was hoping to use boot param to give full names, not just tags, but that might be more than a quick fix. I have other concerns, which relate to the following questions: - when both persistent partitions and snapshot files exist, which one take the preference? - live-snapshot creates different snapshot files each time. when more than one snapshot files exist, which one take the preference? To put everything on the table, I wish another boot param to name swap files to use on boot up as well - I'll cover it in details in another request instead. -- Tong (remove underscore(s) to reply) http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/ http://xpt.sourceforge.net/tools/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-live-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
