Thanks for the instructions. I was able to burn the .iso and it booted up to an LXDE session. Where are the up-to-date instructions or manual found online? I'm going to want to be further customizing my own live USB image. Thanks again! On Thu, Jun 30, 2016, at 18:52, Ben Caradoc-Davies wrote

I use a similar package-lists line for XFCE. In your case, add a line: task-lxde-desktop to a file: config/package-lists/custom.list.chroot List files with names ending in ".list.chroot" are used determine packages included in the live image (the chroot stage), as opposed to packages to be i
