Great thanks -- ill look into this.

Lastly, is it possible to perform some sort of livecd from a running
system? Ive messed around with slackware and linux-live which works
reasonably well but of course its a pain to resolve library deps :)

if not is this something planned in the future? i'd like to help with
this as well.

thx
