Can someone explain to me exactly how to install all of this stuff, and how to get programs running. I'm not quiet a newbie at linux but with all the threads I've searched through I have confused myself . Any help would be grealty appreciaited.

Well I figured out how to install the preinit v4 and I've got the empacman and emptris running. Not sure what do do with the launcher though. It would be nice if these additions could be rolled into hijack and/or the next image release for confused people like myself .
