It should work with Ubuntu/Kubuntu and variants that use the standard casper/ubiquity setup from Ubuntu. Versions from dapper and edgy should both work.
I have tested it with Kubuntu edgy and Linux Mint 2.2(which is based on Ubuntu Edgy) and both dist and backup work. [...]
Remastersys basically exists from my own needs to be able to do this easily and in the spirit of Linux I decided that I would share with everyone that wanted it. It is licensed under the GPL V2 license."

ISO Master
Submitted by Anonymous on Mon, 2006-11-06 18:13"ISO Master: an open-source, graphical CD image editor that runs on Linux; and bkisofs, the underlying library used for reading, modifying and writing ISO images.
Basically you can use this program to extract files from an ISO, add files to an ISO and create bootable ISOs.
The hard part of this project is the library for working with ISOs (bkisofs). My hope is that people will like this library enough to make their own GUIs using it. So my choice of widget set (GTK, that is) will not necessarily annoy too many people."
Reconstructor
Submitted by Anonymous on Wed, 2006-08-30 14:41"Reconstructor is a Live CD creator for Ubuntu Linux.
It uses the Ubuntu Linux Live CD as a base, and then allows customization of boot screens (usplash), gnome settings, and software (you can also use the chroot environment to make other changes before creating the live cd).
Reconstructor does not create separate distros. It keeps the solid Ubuntu foundation, and just allows for customization. For example, create a custom Live CD with blender, inkscape, etc. included for a friend in graphics, or simply use reconstructor to re-brand your environment (wallpaper, fonts). [...]
