Well I don't think that iso will be usable without a /home
My /home is large but not nearly as large as the last live cd that I made in July. Almost all of those files are not yet moved to their new home. That said, I can move the majority of /home to my backup drive and try again. Once I've moved the files I'll try again and then post back. From the looks of it I think we're on the right road. Thanks.
