Thanks, that looks like a very viable option for building official debian-live images. The grub parts themselves aren't very difficult (we'd like to ideally replace isolinux with grub anyway) and the d-i bits aren't that tough because currently we just download pre-built d-i builds anyway. Haven't looked at your code yet, but if no one beats me to it I'll add this high on my list shortly after DebConf. (that said, I also have a similar system but due to my commitments it's moving really slowly and we want *something* that's sustainable by bookwork) thanks for sharing! -Jonathan
