What are the ways of making your own linux distro

distros

I have customized my linux to a great extent to meet my specific needs. I want to make a bootable DVD out of it, which I can install on whichever system I wish.

I have heard of a tool called remastersys.

  • What are the alternatives to this tool?
  • What are the pros and cons of each tool?

Another software package that might serve your purposes is SystemImager; there is also bootCD, but as far as I'm aware it's pretty debian-specific.

If you want a customized linux distribution that you can run from a bootable CD or USB key without installing anything, you might want to look into customizing Knoppix

As with many things in linux, it depends a great deal on what you want precisely.
