Aniruddha, you need to change the PATH set in the /scripts/casper script which is inside the initramfs image (/casper/initrd.gz) of the LiveCD. For an HOWTO about extracting and rebuilding an initrd.gz file, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CustomizeLiveInitrd (section "Modify the initrd"). Inside the script /scripts/casper, edit the line which sets the PATH ("export PATH=/root/usr/bin:/root/usr/sbin:/root/bin:/root/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/sbin") to simply be: export PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/sbin Then rebuild the initrd.gz file and put it in the /casper/ directory of your customized LiveCD. If you have some problem, feel free to mail me directly (you can find my email address at https://launchpad.net/~robepisc). -- Broken PATH set by casper (Was: swap partitions not automounted by the LiveCD) https://launchpad.net/bugs/62868 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
