- Creates an installable live CD from an installed Ubuntu or derivative distribution
4
+ This project is brought to you by distroshare.com. Distroshare.com is
5
+ a new site for sharing customized open source operating system distributions.
6
+ Too often do users need to customize open source operating systems,
7
+ such as Ubuntu, to work correctly on their machines. By distributing
8
+ a custom Ubuntu distro with the kinks worked out for your machine, you
9
+ would be helping others to run Ubuntu if they have the same machine.

13
+ Distroshare Ubuntu Imager creates an installable Live ISO from an installed
14
+ Ubuntu or derivative distribution.
15
+
16
+ It is a bash script, similar to Remastersys and its forks. The script is
17
+ based on this tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MakeALiveCD/DVD/BootableFlashFromHarddiskInstall .
18
+
19
+ To boot the ISO from a USB stick, you can use the dd command like this:
20
+
21
+ dd if=isoimage.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=1M
22
+
23
+ where sdb is your USB drive. You should be able something similar on Mac OS X.
24
+ You can also use UNetbootin: http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ to create a
25
+ bootable USB drive.
26
+
27
+ Ubuntu Startup Disk creator won't be able to turn the iso into a bootable
28
+ usb drive since Distroshare Ubuntu Imager uses grub2 as the bootloader.
You can’t perform that action at this time.
