Actually, this seems to be a known issue. From the "Known issues" on http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/karmic/alpha1 : "There are no desktop CDs with live systems available, since the current kernel still lacks support for the "aufs" file system."
So apparently aufs instead of squashfs will be used for the LiveCD in karmic. -- Karmic desktop CD fails to boot because of different squashfs versions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/375352 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
