Yes, I'd definitely encourage you to get this out there. In addition to
projects like this, projects like Morphix would definitely benefit from it.
Another thing it would help is answering "newbie" questions for people who are
trying to make their own bootable CD-ROM. Those questions are always hard to
answer, not because it's difficult, but because the answer is so long.
Something like your script takes a lot of the dirty work out of it, and makes
the whole process easier to explain.
