That's what I was afraid of.

But since you have a boot option called nox (no X), and the boot options are specified by catalyst, perhaps it's possible for catalyst to write a boot option on the build, saying the livecd signature/version and genkernel would read it and look properly. Lol, it's not important, but an idea for someone to pick later?

Btw, I'm writting new docs before I forget http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_build_a_LiveCD_with_Catalyst_%28alternative%29

It's genkernel that looks for it, so you'd need to change genkernel.
That being said, such an identifier can not have anything variable in it
if you expect genkernel to find it.
