Bug#687099: live-boot: Breaks booting when used from Squeeze
First of all I've managed to fix the problem on the fly inspired from
the related bug.
So you boot with break=init and I run:
mkdir -p live
mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /live
exit
and the system seems to boot ok.

did you use live-build 3.x to build the squeeze images? if not, rebuild
with latest live-build 3.x.
No. I use live-build 2.x because I'm on squeeze but I'll manage to use
live-build 3.x as per your suggestion.

this is not supported that way anyway.
if you want to use live-{boot,config} 3.x on squeeze, you do need to
rebuild them on squeeze first (and put them into your own repository, or
as local packages into the config tree). live-* 3.x builds different
packages depending on where it was built, and adjust any boot parameters
for 3.x manually within live-builds config tree.
So I need to rebuild them... hummm... that's not quite what I had
understood you are probably right. It's quite stunning that using apt
pinning for using 3.x live-boot has worked so well over the last four
months.
additionally, you need matching live-boot and live-config versions,
mixing random pre-latest-sid versions doesn't work either.
You're right. I should have checked the snapshots date according to many
packages not just live-boot one.
last but not least, this is a minor bug. live-* 3.x primeraly is for
wheezy, not for squeeze although we try to keep compatibility with one
release before the target release whenever we can.
Ok.
So... I'll try your pieces of advice. I think you can close the bug.
Thank you!
