That should be pretty easy with druidbsd as it gives you a convenient dumpi=
ng-ground to throw extras.
Note, however, that there is a very large code-drop around the corner that =
will bring about 1.5 years of enhancements in soon. So if it doesn't do qui=
te what you want now, it may soon.
That being said, one of the things I feel makes DruidBSD unique is an insan=
ely-customized mfsroot designed to break you out into the larger (and more =
expansive) ISO-9660 structure so that you -- as a developer of your own cus=
tom LiveCD -- CAN expand the functionality simply by dumping binaries and l=
ibs into the ISO-9660 structure while the mfsroot stays nice and compact.
If you wanted to, you could add X windows even.
