Ok here is some things to try, go download stage3-x86-2005.1-r1 from one
of the mirrors. There have been several fixes included. Here is an
example of the stage 1 spec file format you might want to use based on
what you provided:

 

subarch: x86

version_stamp: 2005.1-r1

target: livecd-stage1

rel_type: default

profile: default-linux/x86/2005.1

snapshot: 2005.1 

source_subpath: stage3-x86-2005.1-r1

portage_confdir: /etc/portage

livecd/use: livecd ncurses readline -X -gnome -gtk

livecd/packages: baselayout livecd-tools gentoo-sources dhcpcd
app-admin/sudo pwgen hotplug coldplug syslog-ng vim ethtool vim openssh
gpm

 

Remember if you aren't using an option in a spec file be sure to comment
it out. Also make sure that you emerged catalyst with the docs, the
examples contained in /usr/share/doc/catalyst-<version>/examples are not
only very well documented but are the most current information
available.

Well I've done this:

livecd-tools is in the list and included in the build,.....


Here's my specfile:

# livecd-stage1 example specfile
# used to build a livecd-stage1

# The subarch can be any of the supported catalyst subarches (like
athlon-xp).
# Refer to the catalyst reference manual for suppurted subarches.
# http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/releng/catalyst/reference.xml
# example:
subarch: x86

# The version stamp is an identifier for the build.  It can be anything
you wish# it to be, but it is usually a date.
# example:
version_stamp: 2005.1-r1

# The target specifies what target we want catalyst to do.  For building
a CD,
# we start with livecd-stage1 as our target.
# example:
target: livecd-stage1
# The rel_type defines what kind of build we are doing.  This is merely
another
# identifier, but it useful for allowing multiple concurrent builds.
Usually,
# default will suffice.
# example:
rel_type: default

# This is the system profile to be used by catalyst to build this
target.  It is# specified as a relative path from /usr/portage/profiles.
# example:
# profile: default-linux/x86/2005.0
profile: default-linux/x86/2005.1

# This specifies which snapshot to use for building this target.
# example:
# snapshot:
snapshot: 2005.1

# This specifies where the seed stage comes from for this target,  The
path is
# relative to $clst_sharedir/builds.  The rel_type is also used as a
path prefix# for the seed.
# example:
# default/stage3-x86-2004.3
source_subpath:default/stage3-x86-2005.1-r1

# These are the hosts used as distcc slaves when distcc is enabled in
your
# catalyst.conf.  It follows the same syntax as distcc-config
--set-hosts and
# is entirely optional.
# example:
# distcc_hosts: 127.0.0.1 192.168.0.1

# This is an optional directory containing portage configuration files.
It
# follows the same syntax as /etc/portage and should be consistent
across all
# targets to minimize problems.
# example:
portage_confdir: /etc/portage

install livecd-tools in livecd-stage1, as it pulls in bashlogin
