@BlueLight "When creating an ISO of a working 12.04 Ubuntu system ISO
doesn't copy the /etc/resolv.conf link created on the original OS by
resolvconf package - which breaks networking (DNS)." <- Correct, relinux
excludes this as using someone else's internet connection will not
always work anther users system. What is weird is that casper should
have generated this before loading the computer.

@mpc Hmm, seems a bit hacky (static nameserver?).

Will look into this issue and try to replicate it. This is actually an
issue with casper, so once a fix is found, it will be uploaded there
(might add some sed/awk hacks to relinux for people using older versions
of it).

Sorry about my late reply on this issue, and thanks for the bug report
and workarounds.

Title:
  /etc/resolv.conf missing on live CD

Status in relinux:
  New

Bug description:
  When creating an ISO of a working 12.04 Ubuntu system ISO doesn't copy the /etc/resolv.conf link created on the original OS by resolvconf package - which breaks networking (DNS).
  That makes the resulting live ISO not very "live" - browsing and all DNS dependent stuff just fails.
  I've also tried remastersys - same story.
  Ugly workaround: after booting live iso or after installing a system from it I have to run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf " and answer "ok-yes"... and then it's all good. 


  There is a related bug repoer with Ubuntu team: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/resolvconf/+bug/1000244
  and it looks like someone was running into the same issue with Debian's custom ISO and they solved it:
