Is there a way of writing the an /boot/initrd.gz file
w/o installing grub. -
Then is is possible to use the livecd as the boot disk.
To make a new .lst file for grub is then trival (i've
played around with grub and it nice.), but can't do it
w/o initrd

isn't this the default (ie, isn't /boot/initrd.gz always
created when necessary for the install?). in instlib.c,
CopyKernel() creates the initrd, but this is before the type
of grub install is selected so the initrd should be created
anyway if necessary.
What would be a (another) good idea is to create the grub
files anyway, and only if not-install bootloader is selected
skip the final part of installing grub...

This is not currently the default, when I test the installer
a while ago initrd.gz was not created, I will test the
latest version to confirm

Yes.
I try to submit some grub menu files this week. So that the
Morphix Grub menu can also act as a boot disk for an
installed system
