How to make so that when you restart "Xubuntu" on the flash drive files remain.

Now after I boot, the files disappear from the flash drive.

  • hmm ... as far as I understand you are loading in live mode .... the only thing I can advise is to break the flash drive into two sections and use the second for personal files and configs - Shilgen
  • The flash drive is not broken by " Acronis 12 ", what can you advise? - FOXZZZ 5:46 pm
  • GParted or its analogues - Shilgen

Now after I boot, the files disappear from the flash drive.

to be precise, the files “disappear” when the system is shut down. because they are stored (when using live images) in RAM.

If on a removable block device where an image is recorded (on a so-called “flash drive”) there is free space and you can create an additional partition on it, then by creating a file system on this partition, you can use it to save files.

You can do all these operations, for example, by booting directly from this media using the gparted program, which is most likely present in the image you recorded.

Whether it will be possible to create a partition depends entirely and entirely on:

  • exactly how the image was formed
  • how exactly did you write it on the block device

If you cannot create a partition, you can, for example, use another removable block device (the so-called “flash drive”) to store files.
