The benefit of this livecd is that the very latest karmic ubuntu packages are used. While xbmc 9.11 live from xbmc.org uses kernel 2.6.31-16, this version uses kernel-2.6.31-17 and xorg 1.7.4 for example. The livecd is created with the
SDK from trunk. With many thanks for Luigi Capriotti who helped me with this release.
I changed the following items compared to livecd from xbmc.org:
- Nvidia ION only
- Removed AMD/Intel drivers (saved 100mb)

Remark: At this moment when you decide to install use the "xbmc" user when asked to create a new user. I'm working on finish-install.d script to make this more flexible!
