Before I begin my new project, would like some experienced DSL advice/suggestions. Not asking for step by step instructions, just the easiest way to end up with my own "live CD" onto a CF disk.

Here's what I'm thinking:

- Install DSL liveCD to HD (perhaps not needed)

- Install and remove programs (using apt-get)
  - Install Samba (I don't think this is included in the liveCD)
  - Install GQview (slide show)
  - Install ImageMagick (graphics editor)
  - Install sshd (remote login)
  - Remove a bunch of un-needed apps.

- Configure everything
  - Xfree86 for dual monitor display
  - eth0 setup
  - add remove services/scripts
  - Create/Mount samba share

- Create a "liveCD" onto a CF disk with all these changes.

- Be able to boot from the CF disk read only (NO writing).

- Profit

I've read howto's on remastering and read a little about mkmydsl and dsl extensions. Confused about which of these options would be the easiest to end up with my own dsl on a CF.
Thanks for any help/links/etc.
