I have built a very nice Debian Live CD but with two problems.
One, I can't switch to the static IP addressed used by my lan. I included a copy of my interfaces file in chroot_local-includes. When I boot from the CD I can substitute this file in /etc/network but I can't find a way to shutdown the network and restart it with the substituted file. I must have failed to include some package as there is no network entry in the Debian/Applications drop down list.
(Bringing along my special config files does work very nicely in other cases. Specifically, I have an xorg.conf file which allows me to use a Wacom tablet. After booting from the cd I substitute a copy of this file and restart gdm and the Wacom tablet works perfectly.)
My second problem must also be an omitted package as only root has a terminal window.
The CD is 575 MB. I hope a couple small packages might correct these problems without taking more than the remaining space.
