No, it's not an option for that (today). It's working, but not being
worked on; it's an installer and a demonstration of the technique, not
a live CD distro in its own right. Now that the creation of live CDs
has become so scriptable and routine, it might be a neat trick to add
to one of the others, though.

(It uses LVM - it mirrors itself onto the HDD while it's running. You'd
need another trick or two, like online-resizable filesystems to make
best use of it.

I can't get to the webpage right now:
