Making your own customised Linux distro is simpler than you might
think - and rewarding too. Don your overalls and hard hat, and we'll
show you how to start building your ideal distro.
Creating something, from a simple meal to a complex painting, is
rewarding and satisfying - especially if you love the end result. The
feeling of being in control, trying out new ideas and then seeing your
goals realised can't be beat. This is one of the joys of computing,
especially programming, with the open source world a constant
generator of code, concepts and communities to build upon. And
creating your own customised Linux distro, however difficult it may
seem initially, is one of the best ways to combine creativity with
technical learning.
