Thanks for the prompt reply.  I am using 2.0 rc45.

livecd/overlay does indeed put the overlay files in /mnt/cdrom/*  thanks.

livecd/root_overlay doesn't seem to be working.  although the size of
the .ISO is increased appropriately, I still can't find the files.  If
they're supposed to be in "/" on the Live CD, then something is amiss
because they don't appear to be visible.

do you have any suggestions?
