Creating a Custom ISO with Options
Here is the scenario:
At work I have been ask to create a custom ISO using UBUNTU as the chosen distro, install our prerequisted packages and present the customer with a choice of options of enabling and disabling services and just in general custom choices that I want to present to the user during the installation. I have used SuseStudio befire but this is more Suse Centrix and wanted to create my own. My preference would be a netinstall setup where my custom menu would give them a choice of what direction they want to proceed in. Any guidance would be greatly appriciated.
