Booting with LiveCD for amd64 prompts several error messages, right after
firmware hotplug, about files that cannot be written to in /etc/sysconfig
directory.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Actual Results:
* Unpacking hotplug firmware ... [ ok ]
Can't write to '/etc/sysconfig/netcard': No such file or directory
Can't write to '/etc/sysconfig/netcard': No such file or directory
Can't write to '/etc/sysconfig/mouse': No such file or directory
Can't write to '/etc/sysconfig/mouse': No such file or directory
Can't write to '/etc/sysconfig/mouse': No such file or directory
Can't write to '/etc/sysconfig/sound': No such file or directory
Can't write to '/etc/sysconfig/xserver': No such file or directory
* Not Loading APM Bios support ...
The system boots and can still be used.
Strange. We should be creating the directory in the ebuild. Anyway, I need to
fix this in the hwsetup ebuild and make sure that livecd-tools checks for the
directory before continuing.
Thanks
OK, I just added the keepdir to the ebuild. I could have sworn that it was
there, but it was not. I'm also adding a check to autoconfig in livecd-tools,
so even if the ebuild is missing it, we'll create it before running hwsetup.
OK, this is also fixed in livecd-tools SVN... I'll need to remember to roll up
a new livecd-tools before Beta 2.

We're well aware. Thank you.
