I would prefer the latter.
The latter is now also available ;) buildlinuxbootcd.sh will build a debian chroot'ed environment, and will run make download and make iso in it. At the end you'll get your linuxboot.iso and the linuxaux directory. I've tested it on Debian and Redhat Advanced Server 3, ymmv There is also no errorchecking included, just start it and don't interrupt it otherwise you'll have to start all over. --Wim
