Comment 3 for bug 211588

Well, as I feared, smartctl did not make it into Hardy presumably because the other request wanted all of smartd daemon, not just the ability to query your disks for their current health status.

A Google for "howto add ubuntu live dvd mage files" provides a lot of noise and leads to this page for Ubuntu:
 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveCDCustomizationHowTo
but that is empty.

Anyone have pointers for how to add a single binary to the live DVD and then re-build it?
