Re: Problems with loop device in current 8.0-trunk and some other bugs(?)

Hi Holger,

the problem with the setup might be that the minimal does not provide
all tools for the livecd boot setup. I think we should improve the
image output code to automatically select required packages for such
configuration to just build without such hickup.

IIRC at least the desktop and rescue targets build as livecd, the
minimal package selections build as install flavor.

Yours,

  René
