Take any packagecd.spec file, remove KDE.  Add it to livecd-stage1
(normal)'s livecd/packages.  You're done.  You now have my livecd-stage1
spec file.

There already has been an Installer CD release.  I'm going to be
creating another one sometime soon.  I am free to change them in any
way, without any prior notice, so even if you followed my *last* set of
specs, there's nothing guaranteeing that it'll be anything like my next
CD.  If you were to ask me, I'd tell you that you're wasting your time
trying to duplicate the Installer CD, as you're aiming for a moving
target.
