Package: live-initramfs
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

Currently live-initramfs will look for hard-coded partitions labeled
"live-rw"/"home-rw", and files called "live-sn*"/"home-sn*" for
persistent and snapshot partitions or files.

This will cause problem when trying to run/test two or more
live-initramfs based distros on the same machine. Different
debian-live based distros need different persistent devices
(partitions or files) and contents. Configurable persistent device
names is the solution.

Thanks

Hi,
this feature request should be available since at least version 2.0~a1-1.

It is implementeed that way:

You could specify "persistent-subtext=subText" as live boot parameter in order 
to have live-boot (live-initramfs) to look for persistent and snapshot 
partitions or files labeled "live-rw-subText", "home-rw-subText", and files 
called "live-sn-subText*", "home-sn-subText*" for the snapshots.

Thanks.
