Using RemasterCC to change to Auto save did the trick. The Live USB restarts OK now.

Thanks for your help,

Thanks Dolphin_Oracle, for the speedy reply. I was wondering if just installing the updates would be enough to fix the Live USB Persist-all problem. You suggested saving a snapshot. I understand that MX Live USB Maker can also clone an existing system. Would that work, or would a snapshot be the ...

I watched the "UEFI Boot Issues, and some settings to check!" video ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLFUZ6LtqiE ) that Dolphin_Oracle posted, and noticed that my Lenovo C30 was setup similar to Dolphin's T530. His boot option was originally set to [Both] , while my C30 was set to [Auto] . As ...

I am trying to transition from Windows 7 to MX Linux, and have been looking for a simple way to get started. Although my Lenovo C30 is running Windows 7, the hard disk is GPT with an EFI System Partition. I was going to do an install of MX-19_November_x64.iso, but after viewing several videos which ...

There are many different examples online of partitions for dual booting Linux. It seems like most do not add a second ESP. I don't understand how GRUB works with only one ESP. Does it replace the Windows boot? What if I want to remove MX-19 later and replace it with another distro?
If I want to add ...

I am new to Linux. I have been trying to understand the proper way to install MX-19 on my Lenovo C30 PC. My GParted disk looks very similar to the one from the T530 in Dolphin's video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PA0QGL2d2Zk . The first partition, /dev/sda1/ is an EFI system partition.
