How about a package that contains the stuff you've written plus a tool that
sucks in the required packages and builds everything? Seems like this
would be great to get on a bootable CD.
It's been done--this is essentially what the modified boot-floppies
plus mkisofs does.
Note that you were responding to a rather old message; the finished
