Hello list,

live-initramfs is maintained in the list debian-live-devel

http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-live-devel/

Surely they would advise us to consult the debug log of live-initramfs to see 
what happens with the start of this Live OS.  

Starting Debian Live with NFS does not need a custom kernel, the standard 
kernel with Debian modules aufs and squashfs works well, I have tested that,

Regards,

Jordi Pujol
