    What should the Rufus persistence setting be for a Jamulus OS stick? 4GB? - the minimum size USB stick recommended. Or 25GB?- the recommended size for a Jamulus partition on a hard drive.

    I'm guessing I now have the answer to my question. I set the Persistence in Rufus to 6GB on a 30GB stick. The File Manager reports 5.1 GiB of 5.9GiB free so I guess that's the 6GB from Persistence. I take it that the Jamulus OS can only read and write files in that space, not the remaining space in the stick drive. I could have set Persistence to max.

      Hi,

      The Jamulus OS v2 system takes about 4GB already on your USB stick. The remaining space (all or just a part) can be set to persistence for system update and personal data. If there is some space left after setting your persistence partition, you will use it as a shared partition between Linux and other OS like windows (for example to share records ...).

      The size of your persistent partition is up to you, it depends on your use and on the usb stick size. You'll have to experiment .... It is advise to use at least a 8GB usb stick.

      I hope this was helpful.

      BR,
      Laurent
