 It is possible to restrict which types of persistent volumes to use by specifying certain boot parameters described in the live-boot(7) man page. The "identifying labels" referred to above can be any of the following:

-Snapshots are collections of files and directories which are not mounted while running but which are copied from a persistent volume to the system (tmpfs) at boot and which are resynced at reboot/shutdown of the system. The volume must be labeled #{live-sn}#, and it defaults to a simple cpio archive named #{live-sn.cpio.gz}#. A power interruption during run time could lead to data loss, hence a tool invoked #{live-snapshot --refresh}# could be called to sync important changes. This type of persistence, since it does not write continuously to the persistent media, is the most flash-based device friendly and the fastest of all the persistence systems, but it occupies as much RAM as the size of the uncompressed snapshot.
+Snapshots are collections of files and directories which are not mounted while running but which are copied from a persistent volume to the system (tmpfs) at boot and which are resynced at reboot/shutdown of the system. The volume must be labeled #{live-sn}#, and it defaults to a simple cpio archive named #{live-sn.cpio.gz}#. A power interruption during run time could lead to data loss, hence, if you have important changes, invoke #{live-snapshot --refresh}# as often as needed. This type of persistence, since it does not write continuously to the persistent media, is the most flash-based device friendly and the fastest of all the persistence systems, but it occupies as much RAM as the size of the uncompressed snapshot.
 
 A /home version of snapshot exists too and its label is #{home-sn.*}#; it works the same as the main snapshot but it is only applied to /home.
