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 ...
We should probably make this an option instead of requiring editing the
script for this. Added to my sticky note of things to get to eventually

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 ..
The main difficulty is how do you monitor and record what someone
arbitrarily does in shell. If they, eg, launch python and run a command
how do you know what they did there? This is definitely an area where
if someone wanted to do some work that it could make a big difference.
