Daniel, Finally getting back to this :-)
Do you know if the live installer is accessible? The regular debian installer works well since it brings up the brltty interface initially, so a blind user who has a braille display can use it. Does the live installer do the same thing? Also is there a way from within a running live system to perform the install rather than doing it on boot? Part of my issue is that I have a laptop and when I boot the regular lenny install cd/dvd, the usb drivers are not installed in time, so my usb keyboard and usb braille display don't work with the installer so I am hoping I can get the livecd to install for me instead. > -----Original Message----- > From: Daniel Baumann [mailto:dan...@debian.org] > Sent: Sunday, May 03, 2009 11:35 PM > To: Debian Live > Subject: Re: installing from a debian live cd > > > Don Raikes wrote: > > Hello, > > Hi, > > > I have been "playing" with live-helper over the last week, > but the one thing I can see taht I feel is missing is an > install from live media option. > > set LH_DEBIAN_INSTALLER=live or use lh_config --debian-installer live > > that will put debian-installer on the same image, including > live-installer (a udeb which makes d-i install the squashfs instead of > using the regular debootstrap). > > note that it has a few outstanding issues (e.g. timezone may not > correctly be set in some cases), which is why we don't offer prebuilt > images with it yet. bug reports welcome. > > Regards, > Daniel > > -- > Address: Daniel Baumann, Burgunderstrasse 3, CH-4562 Biberist > Email: daniel.baum...@panthera-systems.net > Internet: http://people.panthera-systems.net/~daniel-baumann/ > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-live-requ...@lists.debian.org > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
