Update: /etc/resolv.conf still points to edns0, but wifi is working. I guess the latest Debian updates resolved my issue.

Problem solved. Feel free to lock this topic.

I use Snapper on my custom Debian distro, and I want to have a custom name for the snapshots which displays in the GRUB boot menu. How do I go about doing this, and can this also be configured in Cubic so that my custom distro name displays every time I reinstall or install on another comouter? My c...

Issued solved. Turned out to be a minor hiccup which got fixed after doing a full system upgrade. And I have finally finished my customized distro!

Better to use an official Debian package like timeshift . Timeshift is a backup utility whereas Systemback creates a bootable ISO image. Personally I use fsarchiver for system backups and rsync for regular data backups, but a bootable .iso is a whole different ballgame. There are several alternativ...

Okay this is weird. I just rebooted, connected to my home wifi (WPA protected), and it's working. I was on the guest wifi at Kroger yesterday when I noticed the issue.

I'm about to remaster my ISO in Cubic and will test it out. Will keep you updated.

How do I keep my system from changing "wlan0" back to "edns0"?

Edit it as Root?

I did.

I think I found the solution.

I edited /etc/resolv.conf to have just this line:

resolv_conf=NO

After saving and exiting, I ran sudo chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf. After a reboot, wifi is still working normally.

Now to test this in Cubic.

So whenever I log into my system, I have an issue with wifi, and it centers around my /etc/resolv.conf file. It reads as such: # Generated by NetworkManager nameserver 127.0.0.1 options edns0 trust-ad However, when I edit that file and replace "edns0" with "wlan0" and save it, wi...
