Comment (by stippi):

 In r40820, I've fixed the bugs in the implementation. My tests were with
 QEMU and two BFS hard disk images. So I haven't yet tested how the code
 behaves when Installer runs from an ISO. It depends a bit on what
 fs_open_index_dir() returns when there is no index dir. If it returns
 B_ENTRY_NOT_FOUND, then Installer will behave as before. Apparently it
 worked fine when booting from CD directly into Installer. It should work
 now according to my testing when booting from a BFS volume in Live mode.
 Don't know what happens when booting into the ISO Live-CD and invoking the
 Installer manually. If I understand thinks correctly it would probably
 trigger the problem as reported in this ticket.
