Nope -- really, look at the commit[1]. You need the two separate %post
sections as it shows you; you can't do just one
Ok, thanks. I'm trying to understand which parts of that commit is
essential to me.
So it is because LIVE_ROOT only is available in not in_chroot %post
scripts? And the initrd thus has to be created in a normal chrooted
%post and copied to the right location in a non-chrooted %post?
Is there any particular reason why LIVE_ROOT isn't available in chroots?
Couldn't the image always mounted under $INSTALL_ROOT/mnt/live? Or
bind-mounted?
