Bug#706679: Missing Depends: file
I have the "expr: syntax error" as well
my BOOT_DEVICE is "ram" so "device_is_USB_flash_drive" is called with
the argument "ram". device_is_USB_flash_drive does "expr substr ram 6 3"
which sets DEVICE to an empty string and the following "expr substr
$DEVICE 1 2" is a syntax error for expr(1)
this is the end of what I see if I run "sh -x /lib/live/boot-init.sh"
+ read DEVICE MOUNT REST
+ read DEVICE MOUNT REST
+ read DEVICE MOUNT REST
+ echo ram
+ exit 0
+ BOOT_DEVICE=ram
+ device_is_USB_flash_drive ram
+ expr substr ram 6 3
+ DEVICE=
+ expr substr 1 2
expr: syntax error
+ [ != sd ]
