    Good thing you got it to work with a kernel update. If most things could be solved like this it would be great.

    1. The original linuxfs in antiX ISO is compressed by xz right? When remastering I always choose xz

    You see the options there. Some are bigger but uncompress faster than the ones that ocupy less space. It is up to you to choose the one that works best for you (for slow CPU, the bigger less compressed is best, for example).

    2. Current live system (toram) is booted via UEFI with GPT. Cloning this live system in Live USB maker to a USB drive (with GPT option), and booting it via UEFI went directly to grub (not grub rescue), which means it failed to find config file. However, this issue cannot be reproduced using antiX 19.2.1 base ISO with Live USB Maker (GPT option). Repair Linux Boot with Grub Rescue

    Never experienced this. I will have to test at some point when i have the time. For now you could boot toram, create a snapshot, and then use Live USB maker using the .iso snapshot instead of the live/toram system.

    3. Do you know how ISO snapshot will behave? If I ISO snapshot under BIOS/MBR scheme, can UEFI/GPT boot the USB drive made via Live USB maker with that generated ISO? and vice versa

    I think there shouldn’t be a problem. I believe dolphin_oracle mentioned this in one of his videos, but I am not 100% sure.

    4. Not sure if I am paranoid, but with Default settings (without persistence or frugal), I actually saw connman saved my wifi password and connect automatically (Not gonna retry this step though), maybe you can correct me

    antiX live DOES save some things on the live system (mainly for easier wifi setup and other stuff, so that they don’t have to be configured each time).
    I think this can be desabled with the nosavestate bootcode. You can also change what specific files are saved editing /live/boot-dev/antiX/state/general-state-files and /live/boot-dev/antiX/state/machine-state-files
