[quote="brokenman"]Are you entering these values manually by hitting a key at the boot screen?
Changes can be made permanent by adding this line into the boot config file.
If you are booting on UEFI then it is /mnt/sdXy/EFI/BOOT/refind.conf
If you are booting with BIOS it is /mnt/sdXy/boot/syslinux/porteus.conf
yes, on boot, ->F2->options-> save changes, manually, then it works,
this is my refind.conf,
menuentry "Porteus GUI mode" {
volume KERNELS
icon EFI/BOOT/icons/os_porteus.png
loader boot/syslinux/vmlinuz
initrd boot/syslinux/initrd.xz
options "from=UUID:c5264ed2-8661-4701-a33f-97b9d742efc8"
submenuentry "Save changes" {
add_options "changes=UUID:c5264ed2-8661-4701-a33f-97b9d742efc8/changes"
}
submenuentry "Always fresh" {
add_options "nomagic base_only norootcopy"
}
submenuentry "Boot to copy2ram mode" {
add_options "copy2ram"
}
submenuentry "Text mode" {
add_options "3"
}
submenuentry "pxe-boot" {
add_options "pxe"
}
}
