Hello Brian,

Yes the problem with the new method is that it does not have "user" 
created. Instead it uses the default user when you select "Try Ubuntu" 
instead of "Install Ubuntu" after booting the disk.

This means that we have to do the following:
1. Create a branch in svn for this new method
2. Fix packages to not use "user"
3. Not place any files in /home/user but select another folder instead
4. Refine the desktop in live mode (background image, etc)
