I know this is not really relevent to debian-laptops but..
How does one go about creating their own distribution of debian? I am running Woody, with a semi vanilla kernel 2.4.20 (installed acpi & other little bits), KDE 3.1 and want to create a cd that I can use to re-install debian should I decide to wipe everything and start again. I also wish to re-create the setup I have on another laptop that has similar specifications to my working machine. In addition, how would I go about creating my own .deb files? I am looking at creating a deb package of firebird (phoenix) browser, and possibly Thunderbird (minotaur) mail client. Any links or pointers would help. Cheers, Ben.
