What I am trying to achieve is a non-DE system but one with a window manager. Perhaps more than that, how a novice can build a LiveCD....Though I guess all this is proving that one needs to know more than that... My initscript is not that different from the one on LiveCD. But clearly, I am dropping stuff I should not. I will just include the two .ks files with this e-mail (perhaps they will make it through.) Btw, my LiveCD does have X. It does not have a DE. (Separately, where do I find a minimal Live distribution? I always have installed using the boot.iso.) Anyway, thanks again for all the continuing help! Best wishes, Ranjan
