      I am having this problem of any config changes do not stay after reboot.
      I am editing config.js and custom.css like I have for the last year or so.
      Any work around?

        Having the same issue, if I “sudo reboot” or “sudo shutdown now -r” I loose the changes in my config.js and my custom.css they will not save for some reason. Problem JUST started Monday.
        Anyone have a solution?

                  @Plainbroke-0 ok, i have two instances installed for testing, and today was confused by a similar problem… changes I made didn’t take affect…

                  I was editing the file in the wrong instance… took me about 15 minutes before I figured it out… so many files open in the editor it only showed the last part of the filename (config.js) not the path

                        Turned out to be a bad Mem Card must have exceeded the amount of rewrites it was capable of.
                        Luckily I could just Make an image of the disk and transfer it to a brand new card now I am able to edit again.
