[Bug 987195] [NEW] For drivers to work, modify the /etc/apt/sources.list to include file:/cdrom/

[AaronPeterson]

Public bug reported:

The usb-creator script puts the compressed filesystem that contains the
local repository

as /cdrom/

instead of as an actual cdrom, which can install additional-drivers
from...


Jockey is what I believe that additional-drivers program is called, and it fails on a usb live cd.

It can be fixed by including:


deb file:/cdrom/ oneiric main restricted

in the /etc/apt/sources.list file

or as a new file in the sources.list.d directory.


This may be a casper, or jockey, or some other install related fix.
