Rather than requesting that, why don't you use live-helper to create such an image-file and publish it yourself? The beauty of the live-helper package is that it makes that very easy to do First install a current version of the packages. If you have, or can get, root-access on a lenny or sid system (testing or unstable) then it is as simple as # apt-get install live-helper To install on etch, read http://live.debian.net/manual/html/ch02s02.html Then, you only issue (as root) lh_config -p "my-packages" -b iso echo "#include <gnome>" > config/chroot_local-packageslists/my-packages echo "gnome-orca" >> config/chroot_local-packageslists/my-packages lh_build and live-helper will create the image-file for you. Perhaps debian-live could have a webbpage with a table of links to a) contributed images b) the scripts used to build these images -- Hans Ekbrand (http://sociologi.cjb.net) <hans@sociologi.cjb.net> Q.
