This is a feature request to adopt / re-implement grub-live.

It provides functionality to "Boot existing Host Operating System or VM
into Live Mode".

1. install Debian normally.
2. install grub-live
3. choose in grub boot menu the existing, already installed Debian into
either persistent or live mode

The grub-live package:

Essentially just only 1 grub configuration drop-in file:

Screenshots here:

Potential future enhancements:

- More generic package name that includes implementations for boot
loaders other than grub.

- dracut support
