Hi Daniel, sorry for the long delay. Only now I can reproduce live-installer bugs in squeeze and wheezy with confidence. I can also confirm that this bug does __not__ happen in squeeze for sure. I suspect that bug #673328 is the same as this one because /var/log is not restored in disk installation. To confirm it I've build a wheezy standard live image with daily installer udeb, and with a patched live-installer udeb. In the patched live-installer /var/log/ directory is in /target/ after install, without it /var/log does not exist in /target/. wheezy with patched udeb http://www.adrive.com/public/q4BeZW.html wheeze-standard-may2012-patched-udeb.iso normal wheezy http://www.adrive.com/public/HPRHfB.html wheeze-standard-may2012-without-patch.iso The patched udebs can be found in github https://github.com/rbern/bravance/blob/master/live-installer_35~2.gbpe79f3c~debian6460%2B0_i386.udeb Should this bug be re-assigned to busybox/tar? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
