===== Conclusion =====
After 4 hours I decided to abandon this project because it doesn't make sense to build system with desktop environment from point 0. I can achieve similiar or even the same effect by installing packages from series a/, d/, l/, m/ and x/ + XFCE desktop environment. After that I can slowly remove unnecessary packages from system to make it lighter.

Nevertheless, I'm going to improve my basic packages list to make it bootable and usable on CF os SD Cards for small projects which doesn't need any X Applications.
