I am interested in this too! I would love to be able to make a Bootable CD that has NMAP and a few other utilities.

My company doesn't want to pay the big bucks for a commercial program that is equal to NMAP and if I could create a bootable CDROM I think they might bite.

Nothing to support...Just load the CD on a new PC and run NMAP. Nothing to support if it fails try another PC.

I am currently researching the same topic, here are some links I have found.
I'll try to write up a mini how-to as soon as I achieve 'livecd enlightenment' :wink:
