  • Debian/Ubuntu: Increase the boot pool to 1G This helps if the user has snapshots. Additionally, 1G is the expected size that the Ubuntu installer will use.

  • Debian: Drop @gmelikov from Support I've made massive changes to this HOWTO, and it's not really fair to have people asking someone else for support on it, or blaming them.

  • Debian: Install linux-headers-amd64 in the chroot This seems more appropriate, and is necessary if the headers that match the Live CD are not available in the archive.

  • Ubuntu/Debian: Do not mention "Ubuntu" encryption This fixes a mention of "Ubuntu" that slipped into Debian, and also avoids the need to diverge them needlessly.

  • Debian: Use pinning for stretch-backports This ensures that updates in stretch-backports will be installed. I also made Debian.md and Debian-Stretch-Root-on-ZFS.md consistent with their setup of sources. I'm keeping the simpler setup in the Live CD environment, as that is only temporary.

  • Debian: Update to match Ubuntu The Debian Stretch HOWTO now uses a separate bpool and supports LUKS. I'm also using the newer ZFS packages from stretch-backports. I removed mentions of rootdelay. That used to exist, but I'm not sure if it did in stretch. Now with zfs-initramfs from stretch-backports, it is definitely gone. The remaining delta with Ubuntu is expected. I personally tested both unencrypted and LUKS installs.

  • Debian: Use deb.debian.org This is the way things are done these days.

  • Debian: Simplify the SSH command By shortening PasswordAuthentication to Password, we get the same effect for less typing. Also, switch to systemctl, since that's what the Live CD uses. This is consistent with the installed system.

  • Debian: Adjust the login text The login prompt is suppressed, at least on the GNOME Live CD.
