Thanks for the help. But I think it's too much efforts for us now, as I would like to introduce some facilities for minimal installation. Also, I can re-use my "build system" for iso to make a minimal one, it's far easier and safe than "remasterys" the current one. I can't stop you to try this, but if you can wait a week (the time for me to go back to home), it will be available.

I can't really help until I'll be back home, I'll contact him after that.
