Bug Description

Binary package hint: casper

If the installation is performed via the live ISO as opposed to using a physical CD, /etc/init.d/casper should avoid ejecting the CD

Adding the following code to /etc/init.d/casper (line 70) should be enough:

# check for HD ISO boot
if grep -qs find_iso= /proc/cmdline; then
    return 0
fi

  * dpkg-divert away update-initramfs as it's useless on live CDs and
    annoying when people install LVM and similar tools in order to rescue
    a system. LP: #150188

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Adjust /etc/sudoers editing code so that it doesn't repeatedly add
    "NOPASSWD:" in persistent mode (LP: #175159).
  * Avoid ejecting the CD if booting from an ISO image rather than from a
    physical CD (thanks, Agostino Russo; LP: #176014).
