Yep, you can find the built ISO and configuration at: http://irl.sdf.org/debian-shack-live-latest.iso http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/users/irl-guest/shack-live.git/ > I haven't pushed my changes to this repository yet because I never got a > usable DVD working.

Using my configuration, I found that Recommends: were installed but Suggests: were not. I'm trying to get hold of someone in the debian-live team to ask about this as I've got hardware specific packages as Suggests: which should be installed on the Live CD but not necessarily on all systems that have the Blend. This is something I'll be throwing open to discussion within the Hams group soon. It may be that Suggests: might end up being used differently. > I would be completely satisfied with building some testing images for > the time being.

The live.debian.net people are the only ones I've seen so far. I'm willing to talk to anyone who can help though.
