Sounds rad.

Anyone working on LiveCD projects should check out the new Casper LiveCD
system now used by Ubuntu. It makes customisation of LiveCD systems *very*
simple, and gives you a very consistent LiveCD vs. on disk experience, which
is of particular interest when it comes to kernel versions, hardware
support, and different target architectures. Ubuntu has LiveCDs for all
supported architectures, including powerpc.

Handy customisation howto:
