Bug#605255: live-build: lb_config does not document "none" value for --initramfs



Package: live-build
Version: 2.0.6-1
Severity: minor

I was whining on IRC about live-build not be able to build a non-live
image for me, and Daniel Baumann suggested using "--initramfs none".
This value is not documented on the manpage, but also the command does
not complain about it. So either the command should check that the
value is acceptable and reject "none" if it is not, or the manpage
should document "none" as well.

(The build failed anyway, due to memtest, but I'll see about that
later.)
