Ubuntu Customization Kit (UCK) 2.4.3 Released

Jan 20th, 20112 Comments

Have you have ever wished that the Ubuntu LiveCD came with different software packages, or had the ubuntu-restricted-extras (flash, mp3 support etc.) and b43-fwcutter (Broadcom wireless firmware/drivers) packages installed by default ?

You can easily create your own custom Ubuntu LiveCD using the Ubuntu Customization Kit (UCK).

UCK is a tool that helps you customizing official Ubuntu Live CDs (including Kubuntu/Xubuntu and Edubuntu) to your needs. You can add any package to the live system, for example language packs, or applications.

Features:

  • Create bootable LiveCD with predefined languages based on original Ubuntu/Kubuntu live CD using wizard with GUI
  • Build live CD with special features using scripts. It is possible to customize root filesystem (for example install/remove packages), ISO contents (add/remove docs, change names) and initrd (add modules to boot, change boot sequence)

Below you will find instructions on UCK use.
