Creating a mobile site via Live Copy and Mobile RolloutConfig: Bug?

Hi,

I am trying to create a mobile site using MSM with Live Copy.  The following describes the steps taken to create my mobile site.

1. Browse to siteadmin

2. Under Websites, click on New and select New Live Copy

3. Enter a title, a name, and set Live Copy From to /content/geometrixx-outdoors/en

4. Uncheck Exclude sub pages

5. In Sync Config, add Standard rollout config and Geometrixx Mobile

6. Click Create

The resulting mobile site ended up to be an exact copy of the Geometrixx Outdoors site.  The template used for its content pages are Content Page with Left Sidebar.  When we look at the out-of-box Geometrixx Outdoors Mobile Site, we see that the home page has the Mobile Homepage template and all its content pages are based on the Mobile Content Page template.  

How do we get the created mobile site to use the Mobile Homepage and Mobile Content Page template?  When we selected Geometrixx Mobile in the Sync Config, we thought the created pages will honor the properties in the editMap and convert the live copied nodes to the corresponding mobile resources.  Nothing was changed for the rollout config.  Has anyone encountered this?

Thank You.

Apparently, in Step 5, when we include Standard rollout config and Geometrixx Mobile, the live copy site does not have pages created with the mobile template.

In Sync Config, add Standard rollout config and Geometrixx Mobile

If we take out Standard rollout config and use Geometrixx Mobile and Geometrixx Demo Mobile, the live copy pages end up getting created with the corresponding mobile template

You can see the rollout configs used to create the geometrixx mobile site and follow the same.

The out-of-box Geometrixx Outdoors Mobile site contained Standard rollout config and Geometrixx Outdoors Mobile as rollout config.  Unfortunately, trying to create a live copy based on the same rollout config did not result in a live copy site that has pages created with the mobile templates.
