Hello,

this is the first time I use reportbug so excuse me if something is 
wrong and please correct this.

I'm using live-helper from live.debian.net/debian/ repository, 
stable-live version in an updated lenny 5.0.1 live system build.

After login in, the system starts to be loaded with cron jobs. I was 
going to create a hook to stop cron execution and, while I was digging 
live-initramfs for examples to how to do it, I've found it was already 
made in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/live-bottom/25configure_init:

	# This has the nice side effect of the 
cron.{daily,weekly,monthly} jobs in
	# /etc/crontab remaining disabled, yet also not run by anacron
	if [ -x /root/usr/sbin/anacron ]
	then
		chroot /root dpkg-divert --add --rename --quiet 
/usr/sbin/anacron
		ln -s /bin/true /usr/sbin/anacron
	fi

>From what I see the link isn't working because it's not linking in the 
/root filesystem. I guess it should be:

		ln -s /root/bin/true /root/usr/sbin/anacron
