Hi people ok kde-cafe...
I might have the oportunity to provide the 'technical part' on a let's sell 
linux based server adventure. What I wanted to do is make more or less my own 
Distro but based in one major distro.
What we'll do is focus our task, for example, web serving, mail serving and 
file serving. So, I would install a linux distro for those task thinking in 
easy of changing of the configuration and so on (I might develop my own 
configuration tools for that specific task and do everything web based for 
example). But going back to my main problem, I also want to provide a CD that 
people can put on the server and after a warning "ALL YOUR DATA WILL BE 
REMOVED" the CD will leave the computer exactly as when they bought it.
Do you have any idea of how to achieve this, let's say, basing it on Debian ?
I remember some people talking about something like this long time ago here on 
the mailing list, about a tool that created and installable distro out of the 
installed distro and put it on a CD (since I won't be expecting changes of 
sized in HD and so on, it would be very suitable for my task). Or do you know 
any documentation on this matter ?
Thank you.
