Hi all,
since the "integrity-check" boot options does not work (#507477), while I'm
looking at a fix for it I wonder if it makes sense how it is intended to work
at all.
As intended now, it checks via md5sum the content of the media (e.g the cd)
and then it reboots in any case after 60 seconds

This should be already in place, look at live-initramfs manpage,
Package: live-initramfs
Version: 1.154.1-1
Severity: important
Booting with "integrity-check" halts the boot process, probably because the

This is bogus too as it creates a file big as all free space in the target

The persistent partition is mounted on /live/cow, proabably removing it from

look at /proc/mounts, df looks at /etc/mtab which is still misaligned and

Hi all,
I found some use cases for having a tool to include things directly in ithe
debian-installer initrd.
We already have some infrastucture to handle d-i initrds like the
Repack_initrd() function in helpers/lh_binary_debian-installer which is now
used to include the preseed.cfg (all *.cfg)
