i found that madwifi has the ati driver i need and the nvidia driver that i will need when i get a new card. now my question is this: can i modify the iso file on my computer before burning the disk. kinda like dreamlinux. i have tried dream linux out and i like the ability to change the iso before burning, and can i do that with debian and add things like madwifi so i dont have to bother trying to find an ethernet cord and connect it to my router. would i just add the tar.gz file to the iso file or would i have to install the drivers when the OS is completely installed?

NAME

       seeded-in-ubuntu - Determine whether a package is safe to upload during a freeze

SYNOPSIS

       seeded-in-ubuntu [options] package...

DESCRIPTION

       Lists all the current daily images containing the specified packages.  Or whether the package is part of the supported seed.

       If it isn't on an image, it should be safe to upload.  During the final freeze, one should avoid packages in the supported seed too.

       An index of the current manifests is downloaded from UbuntuWire.

OPTIONS

       -b, --binary
	      The  packages  specified	are  binary packages.  This is faster than source packages, as otherwise we must query LP to determine the
	      binary packages that every specified source package builds.

       -u URL, --data-url=URL
	      URL for index of seeded packages.  Default: UbuntuWire's service at http://qa.ubuntuwire.org/ubuntu-seeded-packages/seeded.json.gz.

       -h, --help
	      Display a help message and exit

EXAMPLES

       All the images that contain unity:
