Removed mirrorlist file from overlay and modified Makefile to fetch the file dynamically on iso creation (Thanks, Dan!)
What if we also had an option to fetch it at runtime of the ISO as well?

Do you mean that a user would boot up the liveCD/usb stick and a script would run that fetches a mirrorlist file from the interwebs? (or updates the mirrorlist package automatically?). Seems quite dirty to me, and won't work for networkless systems. Besides why would we even need that? mirrorlist files don't become outdated that fast? Dieter
