Package: live-config-sysvinit
Version: 3.0.23-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer,
I tried to make a debian-live image with a serial console. The default inittab
has the serial getty commented out. Simply uncommenting this line (in
includes.chroot) however did not result in a working serial terminal. The
problem seems to be that `inittab` is rewritten by a script from this package.
The concerning sed-command does not match `ttyS0`, and hence does not correctly
rewrite the line. Patch below
