Re: Live Build Unable to locate package linux-image-*

[Luigi Cirillo <appost2@gmail.com>]

Thank you, I changed the config:
------------------------------------------------
lb config noauto \
--clean \
--mode debian \
    --architectures i386 \
--debian-installer live \
------------------------------------------------
and did "lb clean --purge"
Everything worked fine.
