hi, 

i hope its okay if i follow up on the thread started with that bug report with 
a question: what would be the recomended way to use lzma compression with 
debian-live?

so i'm looking here:
http://grml.org/grml-live/#current_state

so i should be able to add grml sources to config/chroot_sources/

and i can use config/chroot_apt/preferences to pin squashfs-tools to the grml 
version. 

but if i understand correctly i need a way to use "squashfs-lzma-tools" from 
grml instead of "squashfs-tools".

should i change line 61 of /usr/bin/lh_source_debian from "squashfs-lzma-tools" 
"squashfs-tools"? or is there a less hacky way of doing it. 

my live system is lenny but i'm using a custom built 2.6.31 kernel w/ aufs 
patches. do i need to apply lzma patches to the kernel? where can they be found?

 i´m running out of space and would like try using lzma to make some more. 
using dvd is not the best option for me because: 1. when it comes to download 
time the shorter the better and 2. believe it or not i still run into a lot of 
computers which may have cdrom but do not have dvdrom.

thanks, 
kevin
