  • Revert "Debian: mkdir /var/lock" This was only an issue because the original bug reporter was using something other than debootstrap. This reverts commit 3f5a09e7df75aec72d9e85b3748ce7cf4948623e.

  • Ubuntu/Debian: Use a variable for the disk This simplifies a bunch of typing. This does more strongly encourage people to use /dev/disk/by-id naming, as e.g. ${DISK}-part1 does not work if $DISK is /dev/sda. This could be a considered a feature or a bug, depending on one's perspective.

  • Debian: Add steps to patch zfs-initramfs The patch fixes zfs-initramfs's Plymouth support for prompting for encryption passphrases. It is included in 0.8.2, so by the time of the next package update, the patch should not need to be reapplied.
