LiveCD or No LiveCD?

But then, it has no advantage over, say, Ubuntu.

And here is a problem: it deviates too much from both LFS and BLFS, and contains 
a lot of undocumented material (e.g., the whole process of setting up the 
language, guessing the video driver, and the workaround for iwlwifi bugs in 
/etc/modprobe.conf--and note that the guessing process with break with Xorg-7.3, 
and nobody knows when the iwlwifi workaround is safe to remove). It may be 
easier to start from scratch instead of "updating" this quirky CD.
