How to make my changes permanent on my USB stick ? (cdn.nord.pub)

I've spent hours on MX fluxbox, but wasn't able to make the brightness and the time adjustments permanent.

I boot it from my live USB stick by the way.

start the distribution instalator and select your usb stick as the installation drive. you might have to boot it live from a second usb stick to install on the first - i'm not sure.

or use live usb persistance as i said in my other comment.

I need a second USB drive for that ??

I was fortunate enough to find out even this one.

Maybe you don't, idk. Installing a new system on a drive the current system is running from seems weird, but maybe the live iso is loaded to ram first. Either try it or search the internet.
