.SH DESCRIPTION
-lh is a high\-level command (porcelain) of live\-helper, the Debian Live tool suite. It is a a generic wrapper for live\-helper programs. Instead of calling "lh_\fICOMMAND\fR", it can also called through lh as "lh \fICOMMAND\fR", where command is a name of a live\-helper program. See the man page of live\-helper for a list of all available programs and the man page of lh_command for the documentation of the actual helper.

lh has no specific options but understands all generic live\-helper options. See \fIlive\-helper\fR(7) for a complete list of all generic live\-helper options.

defines which bootloader is beeing used in the generated image. This has only an effect if the selected binary image type does allow to choose the bootloader. For example, if you build a iso, always syslinux (or more precise, isolinux) is being used. Also note that some combinations of binary images types and bootloaders may be possible but live\-helper does not support them yet. lh_config will fail to create such a not yet supported configuration and give a explanation about it. For usb-hdd images on amd64 and i386, the default is syslinux. yaboot is only used on powerpc.

Disabling it does save space consumtion in your build directory, but remember that you will cause much unnecessary traffic if you do a couple of rebuilds.

In general, this should not be disabled and is an important feature of live system released to the public.
