Assemble your custom Linux distro online using Suse Studio

Want a personalized Linux OS with exactly the packages you want?


Suse Sudio can do it for you in minutes. That too online. Right in your browser. No command-lines and no editing configuration files. Its unbelievably easy and fast that I created a distro myself in just 30 minutes and Suse Studio built the CD image for me. And of-course all of that Novell does it for you free of cost !!!

What is Suse Studio?

Suse Studio is a build service from Novell. It runs from your browser. You can log in using your google account and start building your custom Linux Desktop right away. Initially you have to choose the base system which can be a base Open Suse system with or without base (minimal) GNOME/KDE. Then you move on to selecting the packages. It lets you choose from the Open Suse repository or ANY custom repository. Also it lets you upload rpm files. Then you can configure user settings including username, wallpaper (which you may upload), time settings and network configuration. Finally you can build your OS into a CD image, Virtual Machine, EC2 cloud image, USB stick image etc. Your project will be hosted on the site and others can download it as well !!! And Novell has hosted it on an amazing server that download speed is unbelievable !!!
