 It is always tricky to track reported problems as many people are
 using daily built images that doesn't always contain the latest
 version of various udebs.

 An argument against this image could be that, at some points, it could
 be broken because it embarks two incompatible udebs. But I still think
 it would be a good debugging tool.

I fully agree about enabling it.

Aurelien, can you handle it for us? it would be nice to try to build
it in most architectures before commiting it.

To not delay Beta1 wait for me to upload installer before pushing it.

Building monolithic images daily?

2010-08-24 Thread Aurelien Jarno
Hi all,

Currently we are building daily netboot, cdrom and some other images
depending on the architectures. There is a target for monolithic images,
but it is not activated for the daily builds.

I do wonder if we should enable it on the daily images, as it can be
very useful for regression tracking. Monolithic images contain all the 
necessary udebs, so the list of udebs is known (from MANIFEST.udebs)
and always the same.

Any opinion?

Cheers,
Aurelien
