set LH_DEBIAN_INSTALLER=live or use lh_config --debian-installer live

that will put debian-installer on the same image, including
live-installer (a udeb which makes d-i install the squashfs instead of
using the regular debootstrap).

note that it has a few outstanding issues (e.g. timezone may not
correctly be set in some cases), which is why we don't offer prebuilt
images with it yet. bug reports welcome.

Daniel
