Package: live-initramfs Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Justification: cosmetical The attached patch just adds a check before trying to copy live.log to the newly mounted root filesystem. When using the "exposedroot skipunion" options, then /var/log may not be writable at this time, resulting in an error message during bootup. The patch fixed this. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers oldstable APT policy: (500, 'oldstable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.27-12-generic (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages live-initramfs depends on: ii busybox 1:1.10.2-2 Tiny utilities for small and embed ii file 4.26-2 Determines file type using "magic" pn initramfs-tools <none> (no description available) ii sudo 1.6.9p17-2 Provide limited super user privile pn udev <none> (no description available) pn user-setup <none> (no description available) Versions of packages live-initramfs recommends: pn eject <none> (no description available) ii uuid-runtime 1.41.3-1 universally unique id library ii wget 1.11.4-2 retrieves files from the web Versions of packages live-initramfs suggests: pn curlftpfs <none> (no description available) pn genext2fs <none> (no description available) pn httpfs2 <none> (no description available) pn loop-aes-utils <none> (no description available) pn mtd-tools <none> (no description available) ii squashfs-tools 1:3.3-7 Tool to create and append to squas
