In case you've not already found out, usb-hdd isn't a valid target type any more. It's hdd now. Take a look in ....live/build/scripts/build/lb_binary_syslinux about half way down. """ # Assembling image specifics case "${LB_BINARY_IMAGES}" in iso*) _BOOTLOADER="isolinux" _SUFFIX="binary/isolinux" ;; net*) _BOOTLOADER="pxelinux" _SUFFIX="tftpboot" ;; hdd*) _BOOTLOADER="syslinux" _SUFFIX="binary/syslinux" ;; esac # Copying files mkdir -p ${_SUFFIX} """ So if you use usb-hdd, _SUFFIX isn't set and the rest is obvious. *) echo "What's a ${LB_BINARY_IMAGES} exactly??" ;; would be a good idea ;) Took me three days to find this. Just testing it out now... but I've seem some pretty beautiful shell programming, so I'm a better person for it :D "The source code is the documentation" Seriously, I expect the fine manual will catch up (if I'm right!) when the live-build heroes have some spare time.
