Hello,
Like with my precedent mail, I'm ccing to all Medical Linux distro teams because I believe that this discussion can be done in collaboration with all teams (even if the final result will be different for each team). See my precedent mail about a central mailing list.

I think that you will not be able to create a LiveCD with fully functional MySQL, PostGreSQL servers.
If you succeed with an installation of these server, data will be lost at each restart.
Assuming that your wishes are:
- distributing an easy system for app testing
- install and preconfigure medical&related apps
- make this fully installable (system and config) to any computer
I suggest to dig around LiveUSB with data persistence instead of digging deeper in LiveCD.
(with a simplification) There are two kinds of LiveUSB:
- LiveUSB installator
* same as LiveCD installator
* install a complete system to your computer using an USBKey, no data persistence.
* Usefull in our case but not what you are looking for.
- LiveUSB installation
* same as a computer installation
* Linux is completely installed on an USBKey with all driver needed to process hardware config,
* a specific partition is created for the data persistence.
* This allows you to create a full OpenSuse/Debian/Ubuntu/Fedora
There is a similar project here:

I'm not a LiveUSB guru but I succeed on create a live usb drive with a 4Go key and ubuntu. Unfortunately, I didn't succeed to boot it from my MacBook, and I didn't go further (install personnal packages and config). It started on a Dell computer.
What do you think about this orientation ?
