Great!

Another important note is, that the grml-live tool
http://grml.org/grml-live/  can be downloaded from grml apt
repositories, and installed on other deb distributions as well!
I didn't yet test it too much, but it should basically be possible to
use your existing fai configs to build live CD's from it - so, with one
configspace, you can build real hardware systems, install cd's with all
packages on them, live cd's, and virtual machine (e.g. Xen) images.

(what about uploading grml-live to debian?!)
