Hi list,
About the live-initramfs starting scripts,
Studying the Linux normal boot process we can observe the root partition is
mounted read-only by the initial script named "local", and the other
partitions are listed in the /etc/fstab and mounted by the "init" script.
It's easy to do the same with a Live system,
The live script should not mount a home partition, simply write a line
in /etc/fstab requesting the "init" script to do that.
thus we gain automatic fsck of the home persistent partition like a normal
Linux system.
Best regards,
Jordi Pujol
