Even though you can activate persistence at boot time adding the parametre to the boot command line. I think it is preferable to add "persistence" to your --bootappend-live parametres. It would look like this, then: --bootappend-live "boot=live config locales=de_AT.UTF-8,de_DE.UTF-8,en_US-UTF8 username=jakob keyboard-layouts=de persistence" > > And I use live-build from experimental... 4.X...

And testing is just about to become stable So the version in wheezy is alright. Besides the bug is in debootstrap, nothing to do with live-build, it affects live-build "indirectly". Using debootstrap version 1.0.47 fixed the issue in my case. > > I know this manuals, and i use them, not the man-pages.

In order to customize your bootloader: http://live.debian.net/manual/3.x/html/live-manual.en.html#560 And in order to use persistence: http://live.debian.net/manual/3.x/html/live-manual.en.html#529 Your use case might not be covered in the manual, but I think it is enough to give you some ideas to achieve your goals. The idea behind live-build is to prepare your configuration beforehand so that everything is done automatically without any further manipulation but there are, of course, other ways or "cheap tricks". For example, in order to modify your syslinux configuration, if you build an hdd image you can dd it to a usb stick and manipulate the files under DEBIAN_LIVE/syslinux but again this is not what you want if you intend to do some serious work with live-build. So you'd better follow the recommended method, but doing a little experimentation is always interesting.
