the post section of the config is just a bash script .. put the
command to copy (and chown/chmod) the files there ..

afaik theres a line that commented out /bin/bash before
target.unmount() in the main() function in the code ... you can
uncomment it to drop you into a shell .. the installation root should
be in /var/tmp/livecd-creator/<temporary-dir>/install_root/ .. chroot
into it and do ur customization ...

I would love to have something that record whatever I do into a shell
script for me to insert them into the post script .. for the
gconf-related customization, I think sabayon can do the job (maybe
with some modifications) .. I prefer using post script because it
makes it easier to manage the livecd and for collaborative work ..

just my 2cents
