live-magic - plain iso not xfce

[bms at barwap.com (Brendan Sleight)]

Hi Chris at al,

Started playing with live-magic.  I tried building a xfce image,
nothing fancy, no expert options.
# tail -n 2 /tmp/tmpgtQbjjlive-magic/config/chroot
# The following option was added by live-magic
LIVE_PACKAGES_LISTS="xfce"

When I booted I just got a plain standard minimal Debian iso (as
tested via qemu).
# ls -lh /tmp/tmpgtQbjjlive-magic/binary.iso
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 84M 2007-09-10 20:23 /tmp/tmpgtQbjjlive-magic/binary.iso

I am still poking around with live-magic (and starting to read some
python books) so I not sure how I debug this at the moment. I have not
run live-helper (except via live-magic), so I my debugging is slow at
the moment . I have tar'ed the whole tmp directory up if this helps,
its 343M  :-

I keep playing with it, live-magic does look like fun.

Regards,
Brendan
