live\-boot is a hook for the initramfs\-tools, used to generate a initramfs
capable to boot live systems, such as those created by
-\fIlive\-helper\fP(7). This includes the Debian Live isos, netboot tarballs, and

.\" FIXME
At boot time it will look for a (read\-only) media containing a "/live"
directory where a root filesystems (often a compressed filesystem image like
squashfs) is stored. If found, it will create a writable environment, using
-aufs, for Debian like systems to boot from.

.SH CONFIGURATION
\fBlive\-boot\fP can be configured through a boot parameter or a configuration
.IP \fBiscsi\fP=\fIserver\-ip[,server\-port];target\-name\fP 4
Boot from an iSCSI target that has an iso or disk live image as one of its
LUNs. The specified target is searched for a LUN which looks like a live
-media. If you use the \fBiscsitarget\fP software iSCSI target solution which is
-packaged in Debian your ietd.conf might look like this:
+media. If you use the \fBiscsitarget\fP software iSCSI target solution your
+ietd.conf might look like this:
.br
# The target\-name you specify in the iscsi= parameter
.br
.IP \fBlive\-media\-offset\fP=\fIBYTES\fP 4
This way you could tell live\-boot that your image starts at offset BYTES in
the above specified or autodiscovered device, this could be useful to hide
-the Debian Live iso or image inside another iso or image, to create "clean"

.IP \fBlive\-media\-path\fP=\fIPATH\fP 4
Sets the path to the live filesystem on the medium. By default, it is set to
live\-boot will probe devices for persistence media. These can be partitions
(with the correct GPT name), filesystems (with the correct label) or image
files (with the correct file name). Overlays are labeled/named "persistence"
-(see \fIpersistence.conf\fP(5)). Overlay image files have extensions which
-determines their filesystem, e.g. "persistence.ext4".
+(see \fIpersistence.conf\fP(5)). Overlay image files are named "persistence".
.IP "\fBpersistence\-encryption\fP=\fITYPE1\fP,\fITYPE2\fP ... \fITYPEn\fP" 4
This option determines which types of encryption that we allow to be used
when probing devices for persistence media. If "none" is in the list, we
with matching labels will be used; if "file" is in the list, all filesystems
will be probed for archives and image files with matching filenames. The
default is "file,filesystem".
-.IP \fBpersistence\-subtext\fP=\fISUFFIX\fP 4
-Add a suffix when searching for the image filenames or partition labels to
-use for the above mentioned persistence feature, the SUFFIX will be added
-after a dash (e.g.: "live\-sn" would transform to "live\-sn\-SUFFIX"). This is
-handy to test multiple live\-boot based live\-systems with different
-persistence storage choices.
-.IP \fBquickreboot\fP 4
+.IP \fBpersistence\-label\fP=\fILABEL\fP 4
+live\-boot will use the name "LABEL" instead of "persistence" when searching
+for persistent storage. LABEL can be any valid filename, partition label, or
+GPT name.
+.IP \fBnoeject\fP 4
This option causes live\-boot to reboot without attempting to eject the media
and without asking the user to remove the boot media.
