Can you try not to top-post?

When you are running a TemplateBasedVM, most of the file system comes
from the template. This meams that many changes that you make will
disappear on reboot. (E.g changing config in /etc , installing programs
etc.)
Some parts of the file system, (/home /and /usr/local) DO persist in the
qube. They are actually stored in /rw: have a look.
There is also a mechanism (bind-dirs) for making other files persistent.
You can read about it in the docs.
(You can, of course, also store files in /rw/config and use the
rc.local mechanism to change files in the root file system on boot - e.g
adding entries to hosts files, custom iptables rules etc etc.)
