The easiest way to make a customized bootable cd/dvd is to remaster an
existing one. The mkisofs manpage documents the creation of a
bootable iso image. You will also want to consult the eltorito
documentation for isolinux or grub depending on which boot loader you
choose.
Thanks Zac. I will look into all this next free time I have
I might add that it's a good idea to practice with something small, such as
gentoo's minimal install cd. You can test your remastered iso image with an
emulator such as app-emulation/qemu.
