Hi Are,

Any changes you make whilst running from the live CD will not be
persistent, so you will have to make the changes each time you boot from
the live CD.  If you want the changes to be persistent, consider running
your live environment from a USB stick instead of a CD.  Do this by
creating an ISO using something like Remastersys, then create the USB
stick by running System --> Administration --> Startup Disc Creator.

Regards,
Mark
