Bug#440301: iso-scan.postinst fails to find ISO on partitioned USB stick

2007-11-06 Thread Sam Couter
achine that can boot from USB. The bug still exists in the daily build of 05-Nov-2007. My opinion is that list-devices is at fault, not iso-scan. The hack I've tried this time didn't seem to slow the installer down so much, so I've included a patch just in case it's useful.
