Note that "loop.ko" is included on the ISO (but not the initrd), in the
form of /pool/main/l/linux/loop-modules-*.udeb packages.
Thank you for mentioning this. I didn't look there.
I have applied your patch to the debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso and
also included the loop.ko. This increased the size from 230.7 MB to
232.3 MB, i.e. by 0.7 %.
The patch itself is very straightforward, short, and most importantly
works very well. Thank you!
The only missing thing is 'LOOPFS=' for kfreebsd and hurd.
Therefore I would suggest to forget about the findiso option and simply
apply this patch to all the Debian isos. (For comptability one could
rename 'loopmount=' into 'findiso='.)
Best regards,
Andreas
