Ooo, lots of questions.

No, the new basemod template doesn't work, I've still to add the unionfs 
and cloop packages compiled against the kernel in the repository.

I actually do use the debian kernel source packages, but for the whole 
livecd-thingy to work well the kernel configuration has to be modified, 
thus separate kernel image packages. It used to be a bigger deal than it 
is today.

I'll see what I can do over the weekend. Last time I tried it cloop and 
unionfs weren't compiling against the kernel.

cheers,

Alex
