Package: live-initramfs Version: 1.157.4+20091126.085142ubuntu3 When booting with 'persistent' cheatcode and providing a live-rw ext3 filesystem data file, the scripts/live-helpers script complains about : grep: invalid option -- 'w' BusyBox v1.13.3 (Ubuntu 1:1.13.3-1ubuntu7) multi-call binary and shows available grep commands where no -w option is available although unpacking initrd.img and running grep (bysybox) shows the -w parameter available attached: live-boot.log obtained with the 'debug' cheatcode init.bin.grep.stdout output of grep extracted from initrd.img I had a similar problem with slax/liblinuxlive http://www.linux-live.org) and solved it by substituting busybox with a script having anLD_PRELOAD (and LD_LIBRARY_PATH?) pointing to the libs in initrd/lib . I think the problem is in loading wrong libs ain initramfs Giancarlo
