Create a custom linux distribution

SuSE Studio 1.0 is released

 

Welcome – SUSE Studio

 

"Novell has just announced the release of SUSE Studio 1.0 — a user-friendly Web service that allows you to create your customized Linux distribution as a live CD, USB, Xen, or VMware image. Users have control over adding any repositories, packages, and files to the distribution. A new user can do the full creation and customization of the software appliance in roughly ten minutes. It also includes a Flash-based "test drive" service, which allows you to try out your appliance in a Web browser before downloading

Looking good! You can base images on JeOS, OpenSuse and Suse Enterprise Linux. Only open to beta testers so far though. Edited August 3, 2009 by somabc

It's not a beta. Just ask for an invitation and sign up with your openID

[somabc]

If it requires an invitation then its in beta testing Got my invitation sent through. Edited August 3, 2009 by somabc

If it requires an invitation then it's not generally accessible. That's not beta testing, just exclusive.

Yes but its exclusive because they are still testing it surely?!

[powdarrmonkey]

Or they're fussy about who their friends are.

[somabc]

Because the images build and run on their servers (at least for testing) they do not want too many people to come and swamp the service.
