wheezy-live and live-config.hooks via http

[Daniel Reichelt <debian@nachtgeist.net>]

Hi folks,

I've been trying to boot the official wheezy live ISO and supply
live-config.hooks via http.

My boot parameters for a KVM are:

-append
boot=live
config
dhcp
live-config.hooks=http://1.2.3.4/downloads/kvm/live-hook-wheezy
live-config.keyboard-model=pc105
live-config.keyboard-layouts=de
live-config.keyboard-variant=nodeadkeys
live-config.keyboard-options=terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp
live-config.noautologin
live-config.timezone=Europe/Berlin
live-config.utc=no
vga=793
debug=y

I have tried with:
  * no networking parameters at all
  * dhcp
  * ip=eth0:...
but got the same result in all cases.


Here are the relevant lines from /var/log/live/config.log where setting
up the network for hook download fails:

[...]

[EOF]


Later on networking gets set up ok via DHCP by /etc/init.d/networking
(outside of live-config) and wgetting the hook script works fine.

Up until now I've been using squeeze's live-* packages, so am I missing
something version-related or should I file a bug against live-config?
