How can I stop APT Update on each boot?

I realize that some of my cores go to 100% for 1-2 min when starting HTOP after a reboot and the reason why is that there is each time APT Update started.

As I am experimenting with some setting which require reboots all the time, I would like to stop that.

The usual suggestions like diable or mask the apt timer did not work…any hints ?

In your dietpi.txt you have these two entries (with extra comments / explenation) to.manage this:
CONFIG_CHECK_DIETPI_UPDATES=
and
CONFIG_CHECK_APT_UPDATES=

See DietPi/dietpi.txt at master · MichaIng/DietPi · GitHub

this one should be set to 0.

THX a lot…and Dietpi.txt ist where ?
