A small clarification on this: `casper-rw` still seems to work with current Ubuntu (including current live ISOs for Resolute), but it is broken in Ubuntu derivatives like Mint, where `casper-rw` no longer works.
This has obviously also been reported to the Mint folks in https://github.com/linuxmint/linuxmint/issues/856 as it looks like regression on their side. However, the casper documentation for Ubuntu is most definitely out of date, as it makes zero mention of `writable` being supported as a persistent label, let alone the recommended one, which, per https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/1.439, appears to be the preference since Focal. If `casper-rw` is being deprecated for `writable`, this needs be mentioned in the official documentation, so that folks and utilities that create persistent partition can point to official guidelines. ** Bug watch added: github.com/linuxmint/linuxmint/issues #856 https://github.com/linuxmint/linuxmint/issues/856 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2142308 Title: Ubuntu 25.10 or before seems not to support "casper-rw" as persistent partition name any more To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/2142308/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
