This worked great - many thanks!

I documented the process of building our LiveCD here:
http://sipx-wiki.calivia.com/index.php/Kadischi

We now have a complete Voice over IP (VoIP) PBX system on a LiveCD for
demo purposes. This is a complete SIP system including plug & play
config, redundant call control and lots of features. 

Kadischi has been great developing a very nice LiveCD that allows
totally simple demo setups.

We will publish the ISO on SIPfoundry (www.sipfoundry.org) probably next
week. 

Many thanks
