I don't really understand what your problem is and what I could tell you
about the menu.lst.
Fai-cd should work as documented in the fai-guide, and if not, we'd like
to hear where exactly and how it fails - then we can help you to get
further.

Please read the fai-guide chapters on fai-cd, the manpages of fai-cd and
fai-mirror(and everything else google already knows) try how far to
come, and come back if you experience problems.

You need to do exactly as described in the docs.

A full Ubuntu mirror does not fit on a dvd, even less on a cd, so
fai-mirror is the part taking care you only get the packages needed by
your classes.
