rescue (1.102) unstable; urgency=medium

However it may not work with a system installed from Debian live with Calamares which appears to set a different btrfs subvolume layout (see #1104552). I guess repair is possible in a live session but probably not as automated as rescue-mode (select root partition, mount proper subvolume, mount /dev, /proc, /sys...) so would it be desirable to add (trivial)
support for this case in d-i RC2 ?
with a tentative netinst for amd64, I deployed a laptop, full
disk, switching the / FS from the default ext4 to btrfs, and proceeding
as always for the rest.
Then I broke the boot by removing the initramfs.
Then ran d-i in (graphical) rescue mode, picked the right partition (I
had no idea which, but I could give it several tries), then executed a
shell in the installed system, `update-initramfs -c -k all` which was required, and `update-grub` for peace of mind, probably not required.
And the system boots again.
I'm not going to try and compare that with earlier images, but that
looks to be “not entirely broken”. If that confirms what people have
been working on, yay.
