Stateless livecd problem

Hello and thanks for your quick answers.

I just want to know where can I add (bash code) in the readonly-root 
files to be able to
have a working livecd !


We just want to be able to boot on a machine and running the same services.
At least SSH daemon, nfs, samba ...

Where in thoses scripts could we change it to be able to mount /var and 
populate this data automatically.
/usr/sbin/diskless-mkinitrd
/usr/share/readonly-root/livecd-linuxrc
/usr/share/readonly-root/mklivecd

And How can I submit those changes ?

Best regards,
Jean-Marie Renouard
