I've tried to make a live CD called Livian (Live Debian :-)) a few weeks ago (It is quite useless and I don't have enough time to improve it now though). I've untarred base2_0.tgz into a new directory and used dpkg's "--admindir" and "--root" options to create a filesystem without affecting the real filesystem. Instead of "cp -a", we can have a generic method that the live CD creators can make a image as they want (just like a new installation). ---- Keita Maehara <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
