Re: New live images released (9.0.1)



Another unresolved problem is that localized boot does not associate a
keyboard layout with language, as Ubuntu does.

+ a detail: Why Clipit is asking about user configuration in LXDE?

> 5. Incorrect Volume ID used for all live images

> live-wrapper does not currently set the Volume ID on images it
