Bug#510280: live-helper: installer on hdd image does not work
Package: live-helper
Version: 1.0.2-1
Severity: normal
Debian installer on generated hdd image fails to install debian system.
Installer searches for installation files only on CD drives, but when it
runs from USB stick there is no installation CD's in system. So it
cannot find any file, even can't initialize network cards.
System installation from such images are impossible.
