"BOOT FAILED!" with a live-rw partition (ext2 and ext3 tested)

2008-11-20 Thread Hans Ekbrand

Bug#506321: live-initramfs: improve documentation for persistency feature

2008-11-20 Thread Michael Prokop
Package: live-initramfs Version: 1.139.1-4 Severity: wishlist The documentation regarding the persistency feature should be improved. The live-snapshot manpage is lacking some usage examples. I'd like to see stuff from http://live.debian.net/manual/html/persistence.html integrated within the off

This would be SWEET and I could see a PERFECT use for something like this. PXE boot a base 30MB Live image then as needed, download and add the different Live Systems you need/want to be mounted. This would save on network bandwidth as well as give some flexibility to clients with OLDER hardware

A central place for stacked filesystems

2008-11-20 Thread T o n g
Hi, It seems that I can't access the stacked filesystems individually. I.e., the mount point of each individual stacked filesystems is not accessible for me. Is it just me or it is the "feature"? I hope, as we might have several stackable fs in /live, that the mount point for them is not from

building lenny, how can I use live-initramfs from sid?

2008-11-20 Thread Hans Ekbrand
Lenny has live-initramfs 139-3, Sid has live-initramfs 139-4 1. Is it possible to build a lenny image, but with live-initramfs 139-4 from Sid? 2. If so, then how? I tried to manually install 139-4 in the chroot before rebuilding, to no avail. -- Hans Ekbrand (http://sociologi.cjb.net) <[EMAIL
