[Request] Creating a install USB for own Linux distro?

finalturismo · 03-09-2020, 12:34 AM

So guys i was wondering what is a good utility i can use to make an installation USB for current version of linux?

I am creating an internet kiosk setup and would like to be able to make an installation USB from my current setup.

Would like to have an installation prompt with terms, agreements and pictures.

Any advice on how to get this done?

Interesting.
A distro respin?
Or Yocto something something?
What have you come up with so far in your initial seaerches?

I know AntiX has software for this and I assume MX has too.

Nothing with any interest thus far, i need something that can help with dialog creations and license agreements.
Not a Distro respin, a highly advanced drive wiping software that will be using PHP, Mysql, surf

Many distro's can be made to boot to kiosk mode.

Sorry, finalturismo, but this really sounds like you want somebody to do your research for you:
- your initial request is vague
- our posts are answered with "no that's not it, try again, because I need XYZ to work"

FWIW, Yocto sounds like something you should look into. I have heard it mentioned time and again here on LQ and elsewhere, but have no personal experience with it whatsoever.
