Of course. But I don't undstand how is compatible with
live-installer/enable=false.

To use live-installer/enable=false the image must be build with
--debian-installer=live.

If this is true, this code on lb_binary_debian-installer script is  executed

	# Enable live-installer
	if [ "${LB_DEBIAN_INSTALLER}" = "live" ]
	then
		# Remove local udebs
		rm -f pool/main/b/base-installer/bootstrap-base_*.udeb

		# Remove d-i udebs
		rm -f bootstrap-base_*.udeb
	fi

So bootstrap-base  udeb is removed, and this code

if [ "${LB_DEBIAN_INSTALLER}" != "live" ]
then
		# Including base debian packages
		if ls cache/packages_bootstrap/*.deb > /dev/null 2>&1
		then
			for FILE in cache/packages_bootstrap/*.deb
			do
				Install_file "${FILE}" "binary/pool/main"
			done
		else
			Echo_error "Could not find packages in cache/packages_bootstrap."
			Echo_error "You selected values of LB_CACHE, LB_CACHE_PACKAGES,
LB_CACHE_STAGES and LB_DEBIAN_INSTALLER which will result in
'bootstrap' packages not being cached - these are required when
integrating the Debian Installer."
			exit 1
		fi
fi

is not executed so bootstrap packages are not in media pool and is a
posible cause of bug 598182.

am I wrong?

I try comment the "rm" commands and the "if != live", adding grub-pc
and linux-kernel packages and it is running but I don't know if this
is the best way of fix it.

See you later.
