.SH NAME
\fBlive\-boot\fR \- System Boot Scripts
.IP "\fBswapon\fR" 4
This parameter enables usage of local swap partitions.
.IP "\fBpersistence\fR" 4
-live\-boot will probe devices for persistence media. These can be partitions (with the correct GPT name), filesystems (with the correct label) or image/archive files (with the correct file name). Overlays are labeled/named either "full\-ov", which will be mounted on /, or "custom\-ov", which can be completely customized (see \fIlive-persistence.conf\fR(5)); snapshots are labeled/named either "live\-sn" or "home\-sn" and will be extracted into / or /home, respectively (see \fIlive\-snapshot\fR(1) for more information). The order these are handled are: full\-ov, custom\-ov, live-sn, home-sn. Overlay image files and snapshot archive files have extensions which determines their filesystem or archive type, e.g. "custom\-ov.ext4" and "home\-sn.squashfs".

.IP "\fBpersistence\-encryption\fR=\fITYPE1\fR,\fITYPE2\fR ... \fITYPEn\fR" 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 allow unencrypted media; if "luks" is in the list, we allow LUKS\-encrypted media. Whenever a device containing encrypted media is probed the user will be prompted for the passphrase. The default value is "none".
.IP "\fBpersistence\-media\fR={\fIremovable\fR|\fIremovable\-usb\fR}" 4
-If you specify the keyword 'removable', live\-boot will try to find persistence and snapshot partitions on removable media only. Note that if you want to further restrict the media to usb mass storage only, you can use the 'removable\-usb' keyword.

.IP "\fBpersistence\-method\fR=\fITYPE1\fR,\fITYPE2\fR ... \fITYPEn\fR" 4
-This option determines which types of persistence media we allow. If "overlay" is in the list, we consider overlays (i.e. "live\-rw" and "home\-rw"); if "snapshot" is in the list, we consider snapshots (i.e. "live\-sn" and "home\-sn"). The default is "overlay,snapshot".

.IP "\fBpersistence\-path\fR=\fIPATH\fR" 4
live\-boot will look for persistency files in the root directory of a partition, with this parameter, the path can be configured so that you can have multiple directories on the same partition to store persistency files.
.IP "\fBpersistence\-read\-only\fR" 4
-Filesystem changes are not saved back to persistence media. In particular, overlays and netboot NFS mounts are mounted read-only, and snapshots are not resynced on shutdown.

.IP "\fBpersistence\-storage\fR=\fITYPE1\fR,\fITYPE2\fR ... \fITYPEn\fR" 4
This option determines which types of persistence storage to consider when probing for persistence media. If "filesystem" is in the list, filesystems 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\fR=\fISUFFIX\fR" 4
Some variables can be configured via this config file (inside the live system).
.IP "\fBlive/filesystem.module\fR" 4
This optional file (inside the live media) contains a list of white\-space or carriage\-return\-separated file names corresponding to disk images in the "/live" directory. If this file exists, only images listed here will be merged into the root aufs, and they will be loaded in the order listed here. The first entry in this file will be the "lowest" point in the aufs, and the last file in this list will be on the "top" of the aufs, directly below /overlay. Without this file, any images in the "/live" directory are loaded in alphanumeric order.
-.IP "\fB/etc/live\-persistence.binds\fR" 4
-This optional file (which resides in the rootfs system, not in the live media) is used as a list of directories which not need be persistent: ie. their content does not need to survive reboots when using the persistence features.
-.br
-This saves expensive writes and speeds up operations on volatile data such as web caches and temporary files (like e.g. /tmp and .mozilla) which are regenerated each time. This is achieved by bind mounting each listed directory with a tmpfs on the original path.
