mini.iso (AKA netboot) might be a better place to start. It already includes tasksel. I have used this to build a no GUI audio system. It may be possible to start with this as a base for our own set of seeds too. However, that would require us to build our own default desktop from scratch as well. I don't think we have the resources to do that right now. Even Xubuntu hasn't tried that and they have more people... and more problems with trying to keep their ISO < 700Mb. -- Len Ovens www.OvenWerks.net -- Ubuntu-Studio-devel mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel
