In fact, I can't make a running CD with simple-cdd.
Each time I succeed making a CD, it doesn't look like I want: I make a 
preseed file in myprofile, but the questions I have to answer are 
already preseeded, and some packages I want to install (e.g. kde) aren't.
So I think I made a big mistake, but where ?

If I try to make a CD base on http://snapshot.debian.net mirror, it 
always finishes with a "ERROR: missing required packages from profile 
default:  simple-cdd-profiles" message.

The tool looks pretty interesting, but I can't manage to make it work. 
Is there somewhere a more detailed tutorial than those on 
http://wiki.debian.org/Simple-CDD/Howto ?

Thanks,
