You'll find it in etc/refractasnapshot.conf (minus forward / - board paranoia setting). You'll find more details here - a redesign in progress.
May the FORK be with you!

Find the line in /etc/refractasnapshot.conf that says:

Code: Select all
  `#mksq_opt="-comp xz"`

and remove the "#" at the beginning of the line.
