I'm working a bit on a new Ubuntu derivative called Fresco (see my sig) its just new and being developed, so I was wanting to put in some of my input.

I was thinking of making a new installer GUI, using what exists in Ubuntu but then changing it, giving new options, new programs, and more customization for the user, how would I do this?

Are there tutorials? And what file is the program to install in?

I want to make it so there are 4 different install choices,
Minimal (smallest install)
Normal (normal amount of installed programs)
Overkill (A lot of programs, lots of games etc)
Advanced (choose what programs to install)

I know this is possible with install scripts in Windows so I have no doubt it is in Linux.
