Creating a linux distro based on Debian

All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

I have moved your post to the "General Ramblings" forum as we do not classify building Linux distributions as "OS Development".

It's not debian, but a good starting point is linux from scratch.

Linux From Scratch is an excellent basis for anyone who wants to create their own distribution. It helps you to understand what is involved, and is much more educational than merely copying an existing distribution (with minor changes).
