Thank you Chris Gianelloni,

I'll take your word on the difficulty of solving that, but here's (what looks like) a few simple things to implement in the next release, if you agree, and unless they can be achieved equivalently (and easily) already. -I'm using catalyst only for 3 days now, but I think not-

add a --pretend option to catalyst so when in the livecdstage1 target it would do what it usually does but launch emerge -pv instead, afterwards leaving the build to be resumed later (it had to require the resume option on the config).

Just a simple way to know the use flags and packages being emerged (currently only the last appear briefly in the screen without the flags, you can always just add --pretend to the current emerge code, but it wouldn't be neat if one didn't want to continue the emerge => ctrl+c).

I would also like something like "--chroot" that would get me chrooted in the moment before the livecd packages emerge so I could figure out problems more easily.

Anyone thinks these are a bad idea?

Cheers,
Nelson
