It was so easy: I simple put the device in the boot parameters of grub/syslinux: live-media=/dev/mmcblk0 There's nothing to change in the initrd. If it also works with a partitioned sd-card where the device is mmcblk0p1 I didn't tried yet but it should. cheers -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-live-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
