Bug#515721: live-helper: Boot methods there, but commented out
Package: live-helper
Version: 1.0.4-1
Severity: normal
I notice that the boot methods exist in the file live.cfg, but are
commented out.
Specifically, the file
/usr/share/live-helper/templates.debian/syslinux/common/live.cfg
contains the commented-out lines
#label floppy
# localboot 0x00
#label disk1
# localboot 0x80
#label disk2
# localboot 0x81
#label nextboot
# localboot -1
After installing a live system on a USB flash drive, I uncommented the
nextboot lines, and that boot method (which, incidentally, is not mentioned
in the help, unlike disk1 and disk2), worked correctly.
