change gpu driver in live
#1
It is possible to change nvidia driver from the Live (it's installed on HDD) with another version of proprietary drivers ? If so , how?

not as easy as it seems! It involves creating a huge permanent storage file, installing all the required packages, run the installer and have the kernel module built. Once there you can strip the permanent storage file removing the unrelated/unneeded files, and extract the NVIDIA drivers only. A little bit of a surgeon process....

Thanks for the reply, it's way to difficult for me ... Sad I thought someone will share a diffrent version of IMG nvidia resticted drivers file to replace the existing one on the HDD or in the ISO.
