Title: Linuxcoin - persistence changes are not there upon reboot
Post by: mackminer on July 24, 2011, 10:12:49 PM
Hi,
I've Linuxcoin 0.2b and am selecting persistence on boot. At the moment I have to mount a USB drive manually to copy over the config files into the home folder. I am also having to install dtach upon each restart.

It's quite frustrating - I'm going to be switching over to the latest version with smartcoin and would like to eradicate this issue.

The machines are going down for a few hours tomorrow evening so I should have the chance to do it then.

Thanks a mill.

Why aren't you just booting from the USB?

Hi,
I am but it just doesn't save my settings when I boot into persistence mode.

I'm no expert, but I've created 20 or more usb's (15+ reformats of experiments gone arwy) and the only time prolems lke that came up was with a bad usb or I forgot to copy the live-rw file onto the usb after the iso file. Good luck!
