2) Use this method, described by Dean Linkous, in an email to me, if you are comfortable with the command line.

 

"I don't think the compression is different - only the method. I think remastersys probably does a less thorough job than the  manual process - also since remastersys builds the ISO from a installed system there is greater chance of cruft and extra files included in the build. I consider it much cleaner to - unpack the ISO, unpack the squash, chroot in, uninstall stuff, repack squash, repack ISO. But whatever works...

Take care,
