 I haven't tested this myself.  So, no guarantees.

Feels wrong to me. First, it simply removes the systemd package (but not 
the systemd-sysv package), not sure if debootstrap will handle this 
gracefully and simply choose to install sysvinit-core instead. Second, 
if one is going through the trouble of remastering the install CD one 
might as well patch debootstrap and add a preseed file.

Kind regards,
Andrei

There also seems to be no mechanism included to prevent systemd from
being inadvertently installed later as a dependency. And as long a
systemd (or some of its parts) is a dependency, obtaining a totally
systemd-free system might be an exercise in futility.

But it's a beginning.

Create them as files, use said files by means of invoking update-cdrom.sh.
Seems obvious, isn't it?
