Hi @greg-blackcurrent,

Thanks for reaching out!  
This sounds like persisting the variables works, but they are not actually taken into account in the booting process.  
For a very high level test, can you try to follow the integration checklist at [Integration checklist | Mender documentation](https://docs.mender.io/client-installation/integration-checklist)? If you feel like it, there is also an automated version of it provided at [meta-mender-community/meta-mender-validation/recipes-mender/bootloader-validation/bootloader-validation\_0.1.bb at scarthgap · mendersoftware/meta-mender-community · GitHub](https://github.com/mendersoftware/meta-mender-community/blob/scarthgap/meta-mender-validation/recipes-mender/bootloader-validation/bootloader-validation_0.1.bb), documented at [Mender-validation: automatic integration checking](https://hub.mender.io/t/mender-validation-automatic-integration-checking/7218).

Which `MENDER_FEATURES` are set in the build? Do you have a way to inspect the GRUB boot process to check if the Mender integration gets used correctly?

Greetz,  
Josef
