Package: live-build
Version: 5.0~a11-1
Severity: normal
Encrypted derivative system fails to boot due to invalid initramfs,
reports "Gave up waiting for root device" and drops to initramfs shell.
Steps to reproduce
1. Boot a live-built system, with a "live" type d-i (no debootstrap),
into its "live" environment
2. Launch d-i via debian-installer-launcher (cli or GUI)
3. Install an encrypted luks+lvm system
4. Reboot
This appears to be due to the initramfs missing cryptsetup and lvm,
and thus not having been updated properly by d-i.
This can be seen in the current debian-live-8.2.0-amd64-standard.iso
from cdimage.debian.org.
If the installer is started from the install option at the bootloader
stage of the live-built system, this issue does not occur.
I have not tested if this occurs with a "normal" type d-i (with
debootstrap).
In writing the bug report, I'm starting to wonder if this is a bug in
debian-live or if it is in d-i/d-i-launcher instead?
