Please do, it might be worthwhile integrating this into mmaker.

Good call. The /base/morphix module also has a packages.gz, however the
rest of the files on the ISO aren't this easily to dig up and retrieve:

grub-gfxboot-iso, morphix-grub-menulist, morphix-iso-grubtheme are the
packages required on the ISO, these udeb's are defined on the isomaker
commandline.

busybox-morphix, morphix-miniroot-linuxrc, morphix-miniroot-splash and
bootsplash-theme-morphix are the udeb's used to construct miniroot.gz.
However these are retrieved via mkminiroot.sh, thus it isn't as easy to
verify.

All the source files of these are in the morphix package repository and
in the SVN repository. In the worst case you could simply list these and
apt-get source each of them. A more generic solution would be to hack up
isomaker to include an option for retrieving the source of the packages
above.
