Hi, i have read a few topics on here and other forums.

I'm looking to create a custom linux distro, the main thing i want is to remove branding/add my own... I've found this site www.susestudio.org and have signed up, but have read it may take months to get the invite.

Does anyone know of anything like this?

Cheers...

You might try Remastersys. It uses Debian / Ubuntu as the model but you can do anything you want with it.

Most distros come with a "remaster" feature. It allows you to install and configure
your system and then create a LiveCD exactly how you want it.
If you are seriously considering a custom distro then have a look at ROCK Linux.

If you are more adventurous and have a ton of free time there's Linux from Scratch.
