That's useful info (probably even more useful to Daniel, who knows the code better than me). Thanks. > syslinux.bin and syslinux.cfg are missing, there are isolinux.bin, > isolinux.cfg instead. OK, so maybe the difference is significant after all. I had not compared with older, working usb-hdd images, as I haven't built those in some time. I did try again with the debian-next git HEAD, and as before it has isolinux files, not syslinux. I get a different error trying to boot with qemu (kvm, actually, same thing though). I get the SYSLINUX banner, followed by: ERROR: no configuration file found No DEFAULT or UI configuration directive found! Then I am dropped to a boot: prompt. From there, I can boot the system, but only by fully specifying the kernel and all appended kernel parameters: boot: /live/vmlinuz-2.6.39-2-686-pae initrd=/live/initrd.img-2.6.39-2-686-pae boot=live config So it appears that in git HEAD the "no bootable device" issue is resolved. That very much sounds like this problem: http://blog.daniel-baumann.ch/2011/07/13#20110713_debian-live-6.0.2-images The configuration file problem I showed above is something different, concealed in 3.0~a21 by this "no bootable device" issue.
