Comment 11 for bug 1582899

After ensuring the "normal" option (not "live") was selecting in the "Install the System" step I checked which processes were running when it paused to ask which kernel should be installed.

This confirms the live-installer.postinst script is running:

$ grep -Ev '\]$' ~/installer-ps.log
  PID USER VSZ STAT COMMAND
    1 root 4696 S /bin/busybox init
  117 root 16648 S /lib/systemd/systemd-udevd --daemon --resolve-names=never

  226 root 4696 S /usr/bin/tail -f /var/log/syslog

20828 root 4700 R ps

Should 'normal' have caused base-installer to be installed into the live host before initiating the target install?
