Why didn't you report your issues with the current build process in a bug or on the list so we have a chance to improve our build process/documentation?
Well, for multiple reasons :
First : the kernel image process uses live build scripts that are obsolete on Ubuntu 16.04 so it crashes all the time because of invalid dependencies problems (those scripts needs packages from Debian that are not available on Ubuntu) ... so it was just headaches
Second : sorry to say that but the live build process documentation is pretty partial and based on situation where "it works" but outside that scope a lot of things "just don't work" and there are many forks for the setup scripts from many users so to be honest ... this is a bit messy and since there is nothing in the repo but everything in personnal github here and there, it was just to complicated
Third : I wanted to report things and help in building a nice TCE builder process but I wanted to base this on Ubuntu and not Debian and I also wanted to understand what was under the hood so I did it myself and to my surprise, it was not that complicated and works pretty well (until this dual head problem) for then report things and help.
I'll give a try to the built images.

Just to give a bit more informations on my TCE setup : it is not based on the live-build scripts because it is not well suited for Ubuntu 16.04 and to be honest, I never managed to get a working live build that way so I gave up.

My TCE image is more or less a tweaked ubuntu 16.04 debbotstrapped image with x2gothinclient-displaymanager installed (+ a few more things but really, this is a pretty basic ubuntu server image + x2gothinclient installed) Maybe Stefan can provide an image that you can try?
We already do. Our images are hosted at
and I'm actually working on a new build of the stable image for a customer, so expect a new upload in the next few days.
Kind Regards, Stefan Baur
