Re: create hdd live with backports kernel
Good question:
If I confirm I have a wheezy backports mirror, set the kernel to the one in
wheezy-backports:
LB_LINUX_PACKAGES="linux-image-3.16.0-0.bpo.4"
and enable backports:
LB_BACKPORTS="true"
Then I get the following errors:
E: /usr/sbin/update-initramfs.orig.initramfs-tools - command not found
E: On Debian based systems, update-initramfs from initramfs-tools
E: can be installed with:
E: apt-get install initramfs-tools

I need a newer kernel because it provides drivers that are not present the
wheezy kernel.
