Thanks Luigi, it was not that patch but a hook that I read in the link above
that renames vmlinux and initrd::

  mv binary/casper/initrd.img-*-generic binary/casper/initrd-generic.lz
  mv binary/casper/initrd.img-*-generic-pae binary/casper/initrd.lz

  mv binary/casper/vmlinuz-*-generic binary/casper/vmlinuz-generic
  mv binary/casper/vmlinuz-*-generic-pae binary/casper/vmlinuz

So I managed to build my first Ubuntu precise image build on ubuntu with a
minimal configuration that I report:

  lb config noauto \
       --linux-package linux-image \
       --parent-archive-areas "main restricted universe multiverse" \
       "${@}"

Since I'd like to create a very basic system probably I can just use 'main'
area, not sure about 'universe'. Is there a way to check the list of
packages and report which repository they blong to?


Thanks to this list for the fast reply to any doubt!
