Hello,
 
I am fine with adding tests as soon as we can agree on the definition.
I wouldn't like to limit it to live systems meaning "not installed to disk". I 
would prefer "xbmc-live" based systems defined as system "installed from live 
cd" alteratively as "package xbmc-live is installed". The first is better but I 
am not sure if it is possible, the latter is no problem. 
 
If you do mean "live" systems I really think it is better to keep it out of the 
repository and if you wish you can add it directly to the cd. (after cleaning 
it up).
Actually, it is not needed at all for live systems. You could just create one 
more grub entry in the Live menu for booting live without nodiskmount.
 
best regards, Jonas

Hi,

after a discussion we have decided to remove the script from the repo du to te 
possibility of it runing on non live systems and causing havoc in there.

please consider adding some checks in the script that would determine if its 
running on Live system and maybe we can add it back. maybe cptspiff, TheUni, 
and topfs2 could add more.

Sorry about that,
Zeljko

It is not that bad, I dont do anything with grub that xbmc-live postinst 
doesn't do.
I agree an advanced setting would be better than a grub parameter.

Gaining the trust of online customers is vital for the success of any company
that requires sensitive data to be transmitted over the Web.   Learn how to 
best implement a security strategy that keeps consumers' information secure 
and instills the confidence they need to proceed with transactions.
