I have made such an image based on Ubuntu 12.04.1 using UCK. It is about
1.6G.
Let me know how to get it to you. I will also investigate using
ubuntu-builder which might be able
to brand the resulting ISO more as Sage than Ubuntu (which might actuially
be a legal requirement
for re-distribution).

It has

/usr/src/sage-5.5.tar
/usr/src/sage-5.5.tar.README.txt # instructions
/usr/src/sagemath.desktop # To create a launcher icon

and depends on all development and runtime dependencies of Sage.

It is standard Ubuntu LiveCD+Installer in one. It has the standard software
installation options once
it gets internet. If you want to include some things like sage-cell-server,
that might be best done during
the UCK (or ubuntu-builder, or remastersys) process.

Regards,
Jan
