I apologize. I have neglected to boast features that are not ready for 
deployment to this list.

I have a LiveCD install;er disc prototype that uses Kadischi and 
Anaconda sitting on my hard disk.
I've had several people test it for me, and have reported success, but 
it sure is not polished, and is not in the state ready for discussion.
Kadischi is much closer than pilgrim with LiveCD installs to systems, 
_trust me_ when I say this.
It also uses Anaconda, so partitioning elaborately, and upgrading, is a 
non-issue.

Thanks for the information however, I personally do not mind if Kadischi 
falls off the face of the earth.
However I think it is illogical to boast features that are noit even in 
development yet.

Just my 2 cents.
