Thank you Chris Gianelloni,

I'll take your word on the difficulty of solving that, but
here's (what 
looks like) a few simple things to implement in the next
release, if you 
agree, and unless they can be achieved equivalently (and
easily) already. 
-I'm using catalyst only for 3 days now, but I think not-

add a --pretend option to catalyst so when in the
livecdstage1 target it 
would do what it usually does but launch emerge -pv instead,
afterwards 
leaving the build to be resumed later (it had to require the
resume option 
on the config).

Just a simple way to know the use flags and packages being
emerged 
(currently only the last appear briefly in the screen
without the flags, you 
can always just add --pretend to the current emerge code,
but it wouldn't be 
neat if one didn't want to continue the emerge =>
ctrl+c).

I would also like something like "--chroot" that
would get me chrooted in 
the moment before the livecd packages emerge so I could
figure out problems 
more easily.

Anyone thinks these are a bad idea?

Cheers,
Nelson
