Thats pretty cool - i'll immediatly have a look to your repo. 

On my wishlist there are only a few points written:
I'd like so have (of course offering help to) get a cook-book on how to
build a CD which 
* is usable on BIOS as well on EFI
* finds itself to boot from
* is only setup with tools we have in {,B}LFS

I'd be very much interested in helping to get a "how-to-build-a-lfs-cd"
written.
