Does anyone know of a live-image Debian on CD? I know that Slackware Linux and, I think, SuSE Linux both ship with a CD that can be used to run a full system off of CD-ROM. I've never actually used them, but I've always thought it was an interesting concept. Not sure if they can do the Yahoo briefcase thing, but it'd make a good HOWTO for the NewbieDoc project if you figure it out. (I think I just channelled Will...)
