Yes
I followed the procedure.
With root user I modified the file, saved
Executed reboot
When the system restarts
I find the file restored to the original and the wifi active

Hi piero,
another - different - solution:
Add
- Code: Select all
dtoverlay=disable-wifi
to your /boot/config.txt - file.
Reboot - Wifi is gone.
regards, Andy

Same strange behavior
After the reboot the modified files are restored
I'm starting to think about a problem with the memory card

Have you re-opened the files after saving, to check the changes have really been saved?

Yes
I also made a backup of the original file
cp disable_rpi3_wifi_bt.conf disable_rpi3_wifi_bt.conf.orig
After reboot the conf file has lost the changes, and the orig file has been deleted
Thank you very much for your interest!

How are you making these changes? Are you using ssh and nano, or putting the SD card in another computer?
I think there is software that recognises .orig files, so it might be safer to use something else - or just remember that every line started with a #. Otherwise, it looks almost as if your files are being restored from a backup, somehow.

I used an ssh client
Since I installed runeaudio the only changes I have made concern the addition of webradio and the configurations to use the digi+ card
