From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Making a custom live iso, then flashing it with persistent storage (lemmy.world)

Recently, I've been wanting to make a custom live iso with a couple of tools that I need but I really don't know where to start or what to do... any help?

E: I didn't phrase my post correctly, I need a portable set of desktop tools for development, running on the gnome desktop

Ok, so pretty much, I want a portable, minimal desktop setup with some partitioning tools and some development tools in an iso format, so I can at any point in time simple take it, chuck it into ventoy or flash it with persistent storage and be ready to go.

And those "iso-maker" programs are more specifically what I'm asking for, either that or if there is a way to make a customized image of a pre-existing distro

I've used and even daily driven Linux off an external drive before, that's not what I'm asking about, I'm specifically asking about a way to make a customized live iso image...
