Some months ago I did encounter repeatable live-build failures due to this mbr.bin location and I temporarily worked around it by patching my binary_hdd script. It might be important to mention that (because my target hardware bios fails when given usb flashdrive iso-hybrid images) it is necessary for me to build with '--binary-images hdd'. So I suggest testing with that setting. Everything I was doing was scripted, from clean starts, and tracked with git, so I would not categorise this bug as an "odd fluke" and I should be able to reproduce it, but I apologise that I do not have any free time at the moment to revisit this.

apt-transport-https
I'm having a problem with my live configuration. When I try to do 'sudo lb build' for some reason it wants to use the apt-transport-https, even though I don't have any references to https repositories in my .list files. I've tried troubleshooting it myself, but I'm stuck and I can't seem to find any good search results.

add grub-efi to binary
Hi all! I'm working on run/install our custom live system on efi bios. I could do it *manually* adding efi binary files (from oficial debian iso) into the binary image part. (I know, it's an experiment and i make this until the oficial uefi support will merge into live-build, and just work) Here is my config tree: https://github.com/HuayraLinux/live-cd/tree/testing What works? the live system boot and run whitout problems on efi system. Now, i try to install the image on the hard disk. The debian installer run fine, also the copy of the squash is done, but fails in the grub install stage. This is because debian-installer can not found grub-efi and grub-efi-amd64 packages (according the d-i log). I try to adding .list.binary file with these packages: https://github.com/HuayraLinux/live-cd/blob/testing/config/package-lists/grubuefi.list.binary But on the final iso image, these packages do not are on the pool/ directory. root@builder2:/tmp/isomounted/pool# find ./ |grep grub ./main/g/grub2 ./main/g/grub2/grub2-common_2.02~beta2-20_amd64.deb ./main/g/grub2/grub-common_2.02~beta2-20_amd64.deb ./main/g/grub2/grub-mount-udeb_2.02~beta2-20_amd64.udeb ./main/g/grub2/grub-pc_2.02~beta2-20_amd64.deb ./main/g/grub2/grub-pc-bin_2.02~beta2-20_amd64.deb ./main/g/grub-installer ./main/g/grub-installer/grub-installer_1.103_amd64.udeb I think that i need booth grub-pc and grub-efi packages on the pool available for the debian installer, but i do known why it not. Maybe the conflict between these packages do not permit it? If somebody have a idea, i will be very grateful. Sorry the long messsage.

Re: apt-transport-https
Well I actually got some help in IRC earlier and I'm happy to say that part of the problem has been elucidated, I had a repository which was trying to upgrade the connection to https. For now, I've removed it and confirmed that without using https repositories, live-build functions correctly. That said, I'm still open to suggestions on a way to incorporate it or work around it because even though this is primarily a way of backing up and managing my own configuration, the pieces that don't work are pretty important to the whole deal. So since I'm still looking for some assistance, here's all the information: 1: I'm building on Debian Jessie, and they're updated regularly. 2: I'm using live-build from Sid though. 4.0.3-1 3: I've gone ahead and put it up on github https://github.com/cmotc/distro-build-config 4: For the sake of space, the last unsuccessful build log is uploaded here https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cmotc/distro-build-config/master/debianbuildlog.log 5: And I started with those, but this is more fun. :) Richard Nelson: > Greetings, > > On Tue, Feb 24, 2015 at 5:34 PM, dyngar-m wrote: > >> I'm having a problem with my live configuration.
