Bug#861108: live-build: stretch image produced with default configuration does not boot

[Yves Combe <yves@ycombe.net>]

I confirm the problem.

I have looked into it and in fact i had two problems.

First, the initrd was broken. The kernel said "write error" 
uncompressing initrd. Cause seems to be the intel_microcode package, as 
disabling it fixes this problem. The broken initrd had just intel files 
in it.

Second, after fixing initrd, the live system can't boot either. The 
/sbin/init symbolic link to /lib/systemd/systemd is missing.
