I need the "early" config I'm supposed to be able to embed in the grub image, but grub2-install has been "improved" so it never invokes an external grub-mkimage tool the docs say I should be able to pass with the --grub-mkimage option :-( At least I think that's what I need :-)

I don't know the use you have in mind; however, when I did service I just made a live USB, shrunk and created a data partition JIC I needed storage. Set the bios priority to USB when needed, etc etc. Granted, this was a basic OS but usually had the tools I needed and did repo install as needed. Using other distro for job specific ofc helped, such as SystemRescueCD, for more aggressive rescue ops... -- Fred On Thu, Sep 6, 2018, 08:12 Chris Murphy <lists(a)colorremedies.com&gt; wrote: On Sep 6, 2018 08:12, "Chris Murphy" <lists(a)colorremedies.com&gt; wrote: On Thu, Sep 6, 2018, 4:17 AM Tom Horsley <horsley1953(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: For sure is unnecessary.

The optional persistent overlay will eventually blow up and will have to be reset. Avoiding that means doing a real install to the USB stick.
