Hey all; I am trying to understand why my live image boots fine on some systems and not others.I followed the directions for the minimal (128MB) live image at https://live-team.pages.debian.net/live-manual/html/live-manual/examples.en.html
That section is rather old, it needs an overhaul. I've rebuilt an image using these instructions, it is 190MB nowadays (e.g. due to x86_64 instead of i386).
A way to fix it, would be to change the configuration line: Original line:lb config --apt-indices false --apt-recommends false --debootstrap-options "--variant=minbase" --firmware-chroot false --memtest none
You can add '--interactive shell' to enter the chroot shell for further inspection of the image. When you leave with 'exit 1', you'll abort the building and can try different scenarios.
Run without '--apt-recommends false', because you might need some recommended packages.
Second run without '--debootstrap-options "--variant=minbase"'Then look at the packages that are present in all variants ('dpkg-query -l') in the chroot
The difference between the non-working and working images will show which package was actually required.
With kind regards, Roland Clobus
