Fwd: Problem with most recent live-scripts



My apologies to Peter - I meant to reply to the list, not just to him.
 Here's the last message I wrote:

With the following command line, I still got the errors:
lh_config -b usb-hdd --bootloader syslinux --union-filesystem aufs
--linux-packages 'linux-image-2.6 aufs-modules-2.6
squashfs-modules-2.6' --initramfs live-initramfs --packages-lists
kde-desktop --packages "less kile wireshark kismet mplayer perl-doc
scm hugs ruby1.8 audacious python2.5 iceweasel texlive-latex-base
xdebconfigurator lynx w32codecs openssh-server dnsutils
libcurl4-gnutls-dev libglut3-dev rsync ltrace strace"

Looking in the config/ directory, it did properly make the necessary
configuration changes:
$ grep LH_LINUX_PA config/*
config/chroot:# $LH_LINUX_PACKAGES: set kernel packages to use
config/chroot:LH_LINUX_PACKAGES="linux-image-2.6 aufs-modules-2.6
squashfs-modules-2.6"
$ grep LH_UNION config/*
config/chroot:# $LH_UNION_FILESYSTEM: set union filesystem
config/chroot:LH_UNION_FILESYSTEM="aufs"

I'm currently re-running the build process with output sent to a file
so I can check for errors during the process.

Yes, but in my case it's not much slower to write to flash, and if it
works I'm all done instead of having more steps to be finished.

Sorry for not searching the lists before posting; this is the primary
boot mechanism for my laptop right now and I was in a hurry.  Thanks
for answering my question despite the answer probably being on the
list already.

That build process has finished now, and the log is posted here:
http://userpages.umbc.edu/~willm1/output.txt.gz  egrep -i
'(error|warning)' output.txt shows nothing particularly interesting:

... but the image still fails to boot properly.
