This is only for those who want to remix an existing BBQ spin, for example the Spring series.
If you decided to go with a rolling kernel model, all towo kernels >3.13 will fail to boot the live session due to a (wrongly assumed) missing hwdb.ini file.
Symptoms: the remaster build perfectly fine, but it boots into an endlessly respawning error message and things go pear-shaped.
Fix: use the vanilla Debian kernels, preferably linux-image-3.13-trunk or linux-image-486/686pae/amd64 and completely remove all traces of systemd (sudo purge systemd && sudo orphaner --purge)
Note: make sure that you re-install live-boot and live-boot-initramfs before you run the snapshot tool. Also check that /vmlinuz and /initrd.img in the root are softlinks to the actual initrd and vmlinuz files.

Re: Remaster warning
I'm thinking of updating Bakewell . . . Is this still relevant? What was the cause of the issue? Kernel or systemD or something else?

Re: Remaster warning
It is still valid as that 'unholding' the bespoke packages should be performed. The recent amd64 kernels work fine with the new syslinux/live-config packages.
