Re: Can't boot jessie images with non-jessie kernel
Csaba,
some time ago I tried the same thing you did, with the same result.
The problem is that Debian Live Jessie (live-boot 4.x) uses aufs, which
was removed from later kernels in jessie-backports, which now instead
support overlayfs.
There was a discussion earlier this year about using live-boot 5.x to
build Jessie images, but I have not tried to do so:

https://lists.debian.org/debian-live/2016/04/msg00007.html
Kind regards,
Ben.

Hi.
I'm trying to build Debian Live Jessie (XFCE + nonfree) with the
kernel from jessie-backports. Or some other kernel from experimental,
which are newer than 3.16. The build succeeds, but the resulting
hybrid iso image does not boot. I'm getting this far with it:
kvm -boot menu=on -net nic -net tap -m 1G -vga vmware -cdrom
/debian-live/live-images/images/xfce-desktop/live-image-amd64.hybrid.iso
I'm attaching a screenshot, sorry for that - after I sort things out I
will do a clean build once more again with build.log and other things
uploaded somewhere if needed. I was just trying it to much and I still
not get it.
