Yes I discovered the talkingarch livecd earlier this morning, so I am testing it out.

So far I have it installed, and am ready to start customizing the packages I have on it.

hello:
I don't know about using ex--I assume it could be done well, but I'd like to recommend arch. It's got a really light footprint, which is really nice for a live cd. Chris Brannon also wrote a remaster tutorial or something of the sort up on his blog, that he also links to in a few other places.
