Customize Your Own Ubuntu Derivative With Minibuntu!

Posted by Roger

The good people at minibuntu.crealabs.it have a great resource that helps you build a new Ubuntu derivate, starting from a clean base!

Here’s what they say…

“…You want to build your own Ubuntu based livecd, having the complete control over the installed software but you don’t know where to start? Minibuntu is here to help you!

Minibuntu is a fully working Ubuntu livecd containing only the minimal set of software to make the system work. Minibuntu ISO image is only 138MB.

After downloading minibuntu you can use Ubuntu Customization Kit, Reconstructor or any other tool to remaster the ISO and add the software/configurations you want, building your own Ubuntu based livecd.

Download

At the moment we don’t plan to release minibuntu for amd64 and PPC architectures.

Support

All support is provided on the minibuntu launchpad page, please take a look at the FAQ section before asking for help…“

A great (and productive) idea. Visit and check them out!
