Great!

It's to not show an error message if live/image has been already
unmounted before. For the context of the code see

This would mean that we'd have to add mountpoint(1) to the initramfs
using copy_exec, hmmm.

If live-boot finds a "wrong" file system that looks OK for
live-boot then the error message can be pretty confusing.
Though I don't like the check for /sbin/init neither, so
feel free to ignore this patch (and we'd investigate on that
further).

They aren't Grml specific local scripts, they are shipped by the
original lvm2 and mdadm Debian packages.

No, since the signature of copy_exec is:
$1 = file to copy to ramdisk
$2 (optional) Name for the file on the ramdisk
