Hi Ben,

Here are my notes from testing the 32-bit live CD - overall, it worked 
really well. I think it needs a few more things before we make it an 
official release:

1. There's no bootsplash image - Debian Live supports this (in a 
restricted format), so we could make a special one that says 64 Studio Live.

2. We should remove menu entries for qsynth and meterbridge, since they 
aren't installed.

3. Having a root terminal makes no sense if there's no root user - let's 
remove it from the menu.

4. Rosegarden needs sox and audacity as helper applications.

5. There are some 'fail' messages on shutdown - they don't seem to stop 
the shutdown process, but they are confusing.

6. We could add some more packages; my suggestions are:

ardour
jamin
amsynth
ams
inkscape
blender
gaim/pidgin
vkeybd

Maybe the DSSI instruments too.

Cheers!

Daniel
