The version that's stored in the rom might be correct, but when you mount the overlay partition, content in this partition overlays on top of the content of the rom, replacing them. So if the content in your overlay partition is the old version, it will overwrite the version that you want every time you boot up.</p>

This is not the case. For some reason, it is now persistent without changing a thing. This is quite weird to me. Thanks!</p>
