I'm very impressed with Fatdog 813. So much capability in so few bytes!

The distribution Iso works well and all my changes (added mupdf, bookmarks to Seamonkey, and system settings) go to the Savefile and are loaded on reboot. Then tried Iso Remaster which did incorporate those changes when re-loaded on a usb drive. I created a new Savefile when powering off the Remaster. But on rebooting the remaster fails to use that Savefile - not found in aufs folder. I did point to the Savefile in Grub.cfg so I think it found it on booting (text goes by quickly).

Also, have you ever considered an in-place remaster like found in antiX?

If you're booting from a USB device or your savefile is on it, you may need to use the waitdev boot option, e.g.: waitdev=5 (https://distro.ibiblio.org/fatdog/web/f ... tions.html).

Personally I don't do remastering, but IIRC, the remastered ISO has only one boot entry, so if the above works, next time you could add to your bootloader config file some additional entries from the original isolinux.cfg/grub.cfg files, one of which is "Fatdog64 with savefile in USB device" with the waitdev option.

Also, have you ever considered an in-place remaster like found in antiX?

I'm not familiar with it.

Greetings!

That was it!

Thank you
