Bug Description

Hi, i'm make a ubuntu derivative with auto scripts provided by livecd-rootfs package. When the build is on binary stage, it's broke. Debugging i find this :

lzcat -S "" "../../${INITRD}" | cpio --quiet -id conf/uuid.conf

When i run lzcat command on terminal it's return : lzcat: : Invalid filename suffix

If i remove "-S" option all work fine. is it a mistake?

I suspect that it's because Debian's initrd doesn't have suffix while ubuntu's have.

The proper fix might be generating the proper suffix "img-{kernel version}" and feed it to lzcat
