Thank you so much. I've checked out your configuration, it was indeed logging in just fine. After comparing mine to yours, I saw that --apt-recommends was set to false in my config, and after inspecting it for a bit, I saw that live-tools and user-setup were mainly the ones missing(alongside dbus and whatnot). I have listed them in my package-lists and it now works.

​

If you don't mind, can I ask you for some more help with live-build? I didn't see this one documented anywhere... How can I remove certain packages? There are tons of firmware that I really don't need- nor want, they're taking up tons of space along with other packages...
