0.7.0b-1 seemed to address the above issues, no? > this would, of course, require uploading a lessdisks source package with > initrd-netboot-tools and kernel-image-netbootable disabled, but i > believe initrd-netboot-tools 0.7.0b should be compatible with the > 0.5.3cvs* branch of lessdisks. this seems to be the only remaining thing to do to close this bug- uploading a version of lessdisks with initrd-netboot related packages disabled. patch attached. live well, vagrant
