As tomas said, the file will not be in /root/. For that you should touch the file in /root/root/. If the script worked, the file should be in /test.txt. Chances are that, because you already executed lh_build before, the debootstrap stage wasn't updated and the cached one was used, so the initramfs is not updated and the script will not be in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/live-bottom. You can confirm it looking at the /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/live-bottom/ directory after the system has booted. If the script is not there, run "lh_clean" and also "lh_clean --stage" so the cached stage is cleared and a new one is created in the next lh_build. Ofcourse, you have to include the /usr/share/live-helper/examples/hooks/update-initramfs.sh script in your hooks to make sure the initramfs is updated. Have fun, Rui M. P.
