larch

larch is a kit for building a live CD based on Archlinux.
Package selection is fully configurable, and a simple hard disk installer is also provided, the result being a completely standard and up-to-date Archlinux system. It should be possible to run the build scripts on most up-to-date Linux systems, so you don't already need an Arch system to build the CD.
Extensive documentation is provided.

"Until I've got something new sorted out you should be able to download the stuff as a tarball (larch_all.tar.gz), including all the docs, from http://www.savefile.com/files/5968615 "
cool
do you have any generated iso's for download to try?
iso
At the moment I don't have any plans to provide sample isos for downloading. The emphasis is really on customisation, you make the iso to suit your needs. It's pretty quick and easy, and has the advantage that you can 'reuse' the downloaded packages, so in the long run it should save a lot of time and bandwidth.

okay thanks
sounds smart to stay focused on providing customizability and let others provide iso files that suit different needs.

Sorry about this, but it wasn't a great success with fsphost.com.

website there again, new version
Should now be available at http://four.fsphost.com/gradgrind
I've added a copy-to-ram option, for those with lots of ram, also various minor fixes.
