Subject: live-build shouldn't default to a broken kernel flavour config when using the installer
Package: live-build
Version: 2.0~a22-1
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***

Hi,

I discovered a bug in live-build (2.0~a22-1) when playing with --linux-flavours

The debian installer can only be start sucessfully when the kernel flavour of the live system is the same as the one of the installer, however there are some other bugs (infinite install loop - a bug report will follow).

I have got errors when creating a debian live image with "486 686" or "686" --linux-flavours setting

For example 2.6.32-5-686 vs. 2.6.32-5-486 (default) leads to the following error-message in the installer process:

Please reboot with the correct kernel (2.6.32-5-486).

I got the following informations from user SynrG on IRC:
<SynrG> the bug is that live-build shouldn't default to a broken kernel flavour config when using the installer
<SynrG> the bug *isn't* to make it work with 686 tho. that's unlikely to get any attention

Regards,
Mark

in the default case, live-build should include on i386 the 486 and the
686 kernel, whereas the 486 one is the default entry to boot.

this is how it always was, however, there's another bug that was
introduced that broke this, see #581252.

this bug however can be closed.
