README: put some more emphasis in the ISO developer section.
Specifically, stress the fact that generating an ISO requires that you create a local Slackware mirror prior to running 'make_slackware_live.sh', since the script will not download official Slackware packages, only 3rd party packages.

The script uses package repositories to create a Live ISO. The packages will be installed into a temporary directory.
-In order to create a Live ISO for any of these variants, the package repositories that are required must be available as a local directory (this can be a network-mounted directory). A local mirror of the Slackware repository is mandatory.

+In order to create a Live ISO for any of these variants, the package repositories that are required must be available as a local directory (this can be a network-mounted directory). A local mirror of the Slackware repository is mandatory - you have to download these yourself.. Any other packages, i.e. those that are used from a 3rd party repository will be downloaded from a remote server as long as a rsync URL for the repository is configured in ./pkglists/*.conf.
When all pre-reqs are met, you issue a single command to generate the ISO. The following example will create a pure Slackware Live Edition:
# ./make_slackware_live.sh
