Bug Description
Binary package hint: casper
According to the casper-snapshot manpage, "it could be handy to specify "/home" and type ext2 for the type to prepare an image file suited to be directly mounted by casper as home".
However, that appears to be broken:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo casper-snapshot -c /home/ -t ext2
genext2fs: unrecognized option `--reserved-
genext2fs: Note: options have changed, see --help or the man page.
This is on Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy Heron" - Alpha i386 (20080306.1)

---------------
casper (1.129) hardy; urgency=low
* Add COPYING file with GPL text (LP: #211923).
* Add casper-new-uuid script to simplify UUID regeneration process,
contributed by Mario Limonciello of Dell (LP: #209847).
* Update casper-snapshot for genext2fs --reserved-blocks =>
--reserved-
most lightweight available method of documenting that we need genext2fs
>= 1.4.1 for this.
