I'm not sure about the semantics of combined snapshots and live-rw. If live-rw is already mounted and snapshots are restored, they will end up on live-rw. However, if the snapshot files are not removed, they will be restored into live-rw again next boot. Either that or the snapshots will be refreshed on shutdown and contain a redundant copy of the data stored in live-rw. Does it even make sense to use live-rw and snapshots together? _______________________________________________ debian-live-devel mailing list debian-live-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-live-devel
