Yea, mine blew up, too.  I'm still just in the "fooling around" stage. 
However, I would like to master this.

Right now, I'm trying to prune Base and Core a bit, to see if I can get 
an even smaller install.  I'll let you all know how it goes.

It would be amazing to finally get this done, it would save me a lto of 
headache and time.

Thanks!
