I've ported the scripts over to Damn Small Linux and made a few other modifications. The new image size is down to 58 MB from 252MB.

I've updated the packages and the livecd to fix the bug in the inactivity script.

There is a problem with the screensaver program inactivity. It doesn't appear to be working correctly, I should have a fix ready by the end of the day. The packages and the livecd will be updated.

I've updated the debian package to ask more configuration questions that would be useful for those remastering their own kiosk. The package now asks to add the guest account, set the default homepage, allowed hosts, proxy server, and remote logging. The updated livecd needs to be remastered and at the very least a new default root password set. The default password is the same as in previous version, boothbox.

I've updated the debian package and made a few changes to the custom jar files. The debian package now has an option to re-direct logs to a remote host, will install the custom inittab, and the firewall. Check the changelog for details. The livecd is also up, I will be updating in by early next week.

This is the initial release of the booth scripts for facilitating firefox kiosk usage. A livecd will follow within the next few days.
