change last command to:

cd ..

sudo mkisofs -D -r -V “$IMAGE_NAME” -cache-inodes -J -l -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -o ../ubuntu-custom.iso ~/LIVECD/extract-cd

after the text:
mkdir ~/LIVECD

you should add:
cd ~/LIVECD

the text:
rsync –exclude=/casper/filesystem.squashfs -a mnt/ extract-cd

should read:

rsync –exclude=/casper/filesystem.squashfs -a mount/ extract-cd

[...] Live CD from your newly customized image. This process can be time consuming, but is worth it. More here Here on Ghacks I have mentioned a few tools that allow you to create various types of Linux CDs. [...]

I’ve found Remastersys to be an easier way for non Linux peeps to make a LiveCD and or mini distro. Configure the OS hands-on and then use Remastersys to make the new LiveCD image.

Ubuntu already has plenty of remixes and remastering apps. Care to show us how to do this for a Debian Sid or Testing installation disk?

Thanks for this great tutorial! Question: What would need to be changed for this procedure to work to customize an alternate install CD? (to basically modify the packages to be installed by default — i.e. vlc instead of totem, thunderbird w/lightening instead of evolution, etc.) What I want to do is to make a LXDE desktop alternate install CD for the powerpc (on old slow, low RAM, iMac G3s.)
