first, why aren't those fixed in initramfs-tools in ubuntu itself? it's imho not the right place to workaround it in live-initramfs. also, given that with live-initramfs 2.x, we'll drop a bunch of compatibility stuff for older distributions. it doesn't make sense to apply new compatibility things for already released, legacy distributions. remember, you'd need to have a backport of that live-initramfs and include it manually into the build. the better place therefore, if at all, is imho to have these changes in an ubuntu backport (though i don't know much about the procedures of/in ubuntu anyway). > * invalid mangling of /etc/event.d/tty* second, we've refused to support ubuntu specific things in live-initramfs in the past. reasoning beeing a) ubuntu people are using casper anyway and not live-initramfs (even when you'd be using live-initramfs, it would be 'different' and not the 'ubuntu feeling/$whatever'), b) in generall we don't support something we don't use/are not able to reproduce. > Hopefully you will find them proper and forward upstream for inclusion. this is upstream here :) Regards, Daniel -- Address: Daniel Baumann, Burgunderstrasse 3, CH-4562 Biberist Email: [email protected] Internet: http://people.panthera-systems.net/~daniel-baumann/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
