help to make unity Uubuntu test.iso
I need some assistance to make a distro (unity7.iso or Uubuntu.iso) an upload it to a ppa.
I need step by step instruction of how to do this in launchpad? I think it would be. I don't like the idea of doing it alone. If we could make a seperate spin of unity them perhaps I can request that development be re-opened for a (unity9) spin for desktops only.
Any help , advice , comments, the good , the bad and the ugly .. please feel free to comment. All I ask is to stay on topic. We may get ubunt-desktop-team advice because I patch these threads out to the desktop-team
Regards..

Re: help to make unity Uubuntu test.iso
Making ISOs is difficult. That's why there is such strong incentive to become an official Ubuntu flavor. Ubuntu Budgie had to make ISOs until last year when they became official; System76 makes ISOs now.
PPAs host Ubuntu packages (.deb's) not ISOs.
What do you mean by Unity 9?
Re: help to make unity Uubuntu test.iso
I saw this answer at AskUbuntu. I think it could be useful :-)
Q: Transfer all file and programs and settings to iso file; A: Systemback
I have not used it, but the instructions are rather detailed.

+1
Sourceforge is a possible host for iso files.

Hey,
Thanks Jeremy.
Unity9 is just logical next step for *desktop* only. So .. if I can create a stable spin of unity7 then perhaps I could request that we re-open dev for unity with community support. it is just a very small seed at this time. It would not require any devs to split time from gnome.
Regards..

Re: help to make unity Uubuntu test.iso
ventrical, have you had a look at this for creating a LiveCD.
You'll probably have to get the iso hosted on someplace like Github, until you get your version accepted as an official flavour.
