    only a general remaster for distribution [will] reset repos to time zone based.

    FWIW, I sifted through the code to confirm
    live-remaster{—}installed-to-live::do_repo()
    The reset of repo(s) only occurs if a general remaster is requested.
    In this case, “country” is reverted to default (US) and default repos for the default country are assigned.

    The detail unclear to me is this:
    “At time of creating a personal remaster, are the /proc/cmdline parameters currently in effect taken into consideration?”

    Separate from the individual “cheat codes”, we have available the “dostore” and “nostore” directives… and, on the LegacyBIOS bootscreen (during liveboot, at least) we have the the “F8 Save” option. IIRC, F8 acts same as (might be identical to) declaring “dostore” ~~ causing all of the currently-selected options to be captured, and reapplied, during future boot sessions.

    If someone types “norepo” (or disable=rXXX) on the bootline, does that apply to only the current session… or is the r detail automatically saved (and possibly later forgotten by the user, unless s/he peeks at /proc/cmdline)… and beyond just the r detail, I don’t know which other (any? all?) cheat codes would be considered when performing a personal live-remaster.
