See https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=910201 So, you could maybe get that patch in Buster, if you convince whoever adopted it and the release team, and make sure that doesn't break the live images. But it has to be really soon. Unfortunately I'm neck deep in other things, and won't be able to help with it. > Then longterm fix would be to switch to fai-diskimage like other cloud > images are doing. I am planning to do this for the Debian 11 release. yes please
