Bug#340981: debian-installer and world writable directories
The genext2fs upload I am preparing fixes the permission problems. It
is current upstream cvs which is similar to what the upcoming 1.4
release will be.
The new version uses a new device table format. It looks to me like
debian-installer does not use the device table (instead it uses
mknod/devfs). The new version also changes some options that I
believe are not used by d-i ( -D replaces the old -f, and -I replaces
the old -i).
That is just a head's up in case there are genext2fs invocations
outside of debian-installer/installer/build/Makefile that are
affected by this change.
