[Vagrant Cascadian]

Control: tags -1 +confirmed

My test confirmed the same issue (after working around an issue with
lsb_release --codename reporting "n/a").

Well, unless you have all the packages needed on the installer media, or
configure ltsp-client-builder to use network mirrors, it won't work.

Yes, it needs to be mounted in /target/cdrom when ltsp-client-builder
runs. This seems to be a change in debian-installer again, then.

I definitely tested that it wasn't needed back in April, it actually
caused the build to fail to try to mount it.

It would seem ltsp-client-builder is going to need to get much more
intelligent about this...


live well,
