I believe openssh is in the system, the package list does not include the 92 system packages :)
and I try to fix all the user problems asap ;) just seems like I failed if there is bugs, I dont give up until the # of bugs and failed boots is '0' :) - This was built from scratch, and caused some headaches, but eventually everything worked and I tested and uploaded :) (I only have 2 cd-rs left :X)

Anyway, thanks for the mirror offer again :)

Thanks for the mirror :) I added it to the list :)

As well as added a link to the (older) amd64 livecd, which is not too much older, it still uses reiser4progs 1.0.5 and kernel 2.6.14
