Title:
  LiveCDCustomizationFromScratch page needs an update

Status in “ubuntu-docs” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  The following page:
  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomizationFromScratch

  mentions a problem with initctl in chroot, and points to the following bug report page:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/430224

  The bug has been solved with the Upstart package version 1.3, as said in the comment #44:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/430224/comments/44

  The Upstart version which is now available in Precise is the version
  number 1.5-0ubuntu7, so I can only suppose the bug is now very much
  fixed.

  I am sorry I could not edit that one page to correct it, but I can't
  access to it. I identified with my Launchpad ID, but then I was
  brought to the main documentation page, and when I followed the links
  from there up to the LiveCDCustomizationFromScratch page I was again
  facing a "login to edit" invite. I tried with Firefox, with Midori,
  with Firefox again in "safe-mode" (no plugins activated) but faced the
  same behavior each time.

  So thanks for finding a way to edit that one page, where we can still
  read:

  "There is a current (for Karmic, Lynx, Maverick and any future
  versions of Ubuntu that use Upstart) issue with services running in a
  chroot: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/430224.

  A workaround is to link /sbin/initctl to /bin/true.

  ln -s /bin/true /sbin/initctl"

  which is the part I would have wanted to update.
