making a distro

[drosophyllum]

I have a system which has 5 linux distributions and im tired of switching between them so im considering making my own distribution. Im planning on naming it Entropy Linux. The dictionary defines entropy as the tendency for all matter and energy in the universe to evolve toward a state of inert uniformity.

Basically, i will begin with a Gentoo system and add
portage
deb
rpm
packman
and conary

Do you think this is possible, like will the package managers conflict with eachother?
Any other suggestions for the name? (^_^)

Also... how on earth do you make a bootable installation cd???????

As for installation i was also thinking about a script...
what other package managers did i miss?
Any ideas ppl?

I suggest you use a different base or build a distro from Linux from Scratch.

Don't do it ;)

Why would I want a distro with all those package managers? Pick one and keep it simple.

You're going to end up with one horrible mess if you use all those package managers I'm afraid.

Make everything as simple as possible, but not simpler.
