    How do you make a customized ISO of the operating system?

    Can one make a self booting installation ISO on a flash drive of Fedora 14 as it is, with all my files being in the new install, so I can install this modified operating system on my relatives computers just like I have it on mine, or for if ever the operating system on mine fails, so I can use this flash drive ISO to reinstall the operating system on mine just like I like it, just like it is now?
    If this can be done, please tell me how you do it, or kindly provide me with a link to a page that has this information.

    You can take a look at Revisor to see if it will meet your needs:

    "Site Error

    Sorry, the requested resource does not exist.

    Check the URL and try again."


    Your link failed, so I surfed Google for it and got it. Thanks. Now to learn it and test drive it.
    You're a genius Ozar. I can't wait to try it out. Now what? I'll read it all. I suppose I must make the ISO copy of the operating system, running code, then feed it to a CD burner.


    Oh Poo. I got it installed, and found it in system tools, but it won't mount on the desktop. Just my luck. So now what be the magic word to get this thing started? "Maybe it's because I'm not sitting straight?"

    Not sure why the link failed for you. I tested the URL on the computer that it was posted from right after posting it, and just now checked it again from another location on a different computer and it pulls up every time for me. Glad you were able to search it out.

    Revisor is in system tools, but it won't load to the desktop. Does it load for you? Did it work for you first time you tried it? Should I reinstall it? Got any ideas why it won't start? All these stupid problems, one after another. I almost feel like i'm crying inside. I'm wondering if I should just go back to Windows 98? Oh what a horrid thought.
