I think, I've pinned possible cause of this problem, but I don't have enough knowledge to fix it.

Here are results of "lsinitramfs initrd.img|grep ntfs>initrd.txt" command.

For Debian 9.9:


scripts/local-bottom/ntfs_3g
scripts/local-premount/ntfs_3g
lib/modules/4.9.0-9-686/kernel/fs/ntfs
lib/modules/4.9.0-9-686/kernel/fs/ntfs/ntfs.ko
lib/i386-linux-gnu/libntfs-3g.so.871
lib/i386-linux-gnu/libntfs-3g.so.871.0.0
bin/ntfs-3g
sbin/mount.ntfs-3g
sbin/mount.ntfs


For Debian 10.0:


scripts/local-bottom/ntfs_3g
scripts/local-premount/ntfs_3g
usr/bin/ntfs-3g
usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libntfs-3g.so.883
usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libntfs-3g.so.883.0.0
usr/sbin/mount.ntfs
usr/sbin/mount.ntfs-3g


As you can see, ntfs.ko is missing in Debian 10. Problem is - I can't add it. Just because it's missing in kernel package too. Even if I add "echo "ntfs" >> /etc/initramfs-tools/modules" hook to live-build, it doesn't help, simply because chroot /lib/modules/<version>/kernle/fs doesn't have one. I guess, I need to rebuild this module from sources. Or may be live-boot should be reconfigured somehow to support booting via ntfs-3g, since it doesn't currently work. But I just don't have enough experience to do it.
