Dear list,
I discovered a little problem with the installer of a debian-live cd.
The problem is, if the package "bootcd" is added in ~/config/mylist.list.chroot, it will crash the installation of grub during install. This happens in graphical mode as well as in text mode or expert mode.
I figured out, this might be a dependency problem. Dunno, whom to ask, as either the developer of bootcd, as well as the developers of debian-install are doing nothing wrong from their sight of. Maybe the both develpers should talk to each other.
To see what is happening, I attached a screenshot of the message, the installer told and why grub can not be installed. It might explain more.
However, I suppose, there are not many people in the world, building
a "live-system + installer + bootcd" on it and want to install this. I also believe, the package bootcd is only known by very few people at all.
But as we are always want to improve things, I feel it important, to tell about this problem.
As I said before: Dunno, whom I should file a bugreport!
Anyway, take a look at the picture and you know more.
For me, it looks like a dependency problem....
Best regards
Hans
P.S. For me I marked the problem as solved, just do not add bootcd on the live-cd. However, this will not fix the problem at all, but maybe you might want to take a look for other people.
