Check the README for instructions on customizing the contents of the CD to fit your needs, and then load it with a custom /etc/inittab file that only launches one (or however many instances you want) of livecd-login. There may be other ways, if you poke around, of minimizing the memory usage of the CD. -- JH -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/livecd FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
