live-initramfs lists the parameters
Building on a Debian system:
- apt-get install live-helper or rather use the latest from ‘deb http://live.debian.net/debian-snapshots/ ./’
git clone git://git.debian.org/git/debian-live/config-webc.git- webconverger/ is the base config file. Have a look around.
- Take a look inside config/. You probably need to edit LIVE_MIRROR variables in the file bootstrap.
lh buildin webconverger/
Then typically use VMWARE for testing your freshly built image.
- todo has a list of bugs that need to be fixed. Please help me out and you will be acknowledged for your contribution.

Tips:
- squid on your build machine saves bandwidth whilst Debian Live’s live-helper downloads the packages
