To preserve your settings you need to:
1. Konw exactly what are the files that store these settings (This is sometime tricky depending on the program). Note that if you are storing the themes in your home directory they also have to be copied along with the config files. I keep all my themes and graphics in a system wide directories to make them available to all users.
2. These files are not copied to the home directory of your live CD. they are copied to the /etc/skel of the live cd (${WORK}/rootfs/etc/skel) as explained in the optional part of step. B
If you are not able to determine what are the files that carry these config files, One solution is to copy all the config files in your home directory by replacing the optional commad in step B with this command:
Code:
cd $HOME && find . -type f | grep '^\./\.' \
| grep -vi -e 'cache' -e 'thumbnail' -e 'log' -e 'trash' \
-e 'history' -e 'snapshot' -e 'tmp' -e 'temp' -e \
'serverauth' -e 'ICEauthority'\
| while read file; do sudo cp -v --parents --preserve=mode $file ${WORK}/rootfs/etc/skel; done
