Here are some scripts I use to make the user data on the live CD permanent so you don't have to reconfigure every time. There are 3 scripts: getit.pl tries to read the file pskmailperm.tar.gz from a USB memory stick and installs the data saveit.pl tries to save itself and the data into a file pskmailperm.tar.gz on a USB stick netconfig.pl configures the network (edit it for your network data) run this one as root. Maybe you can use them. 73, Rein Pa0R
