Yes, the size difference is "expected" and can be explained easily: In
order to see how tiny we can get an ordenary x86 rescue ISO I did some
local modifications to strip of some files such as .la, la, pkgconfig, et al.
Since this was some rather rogue hacking it could not be committed to the
SVN tree as it (as it would have affected any other non-rescue Live image
created).
I see. Thanks for clarifying that!
I'll sort out my working copy modifications and post the diff here.
The good news is that you do not need to rebuild the whole build, as this
filtering code is just in the code path squashing the resulting FS image.
So you just would need to re-run the Build-Target which would not rebuild
anything but resquash the image to get the smaller CD.
I'm looking forward to that. I'm planning to add a bunch of packages
to 'my' version of the CD once I really figure out what I'm doing, so
staying within the size limit of a business card CD will probably not
work out well, but keeping the size down is always nice.
Thanks,

(With just one more question for now - but that one might be better
off in yet another new thread...)
