Sorry for the short answer. I'm just starting with Linux and planning to build a distro for learning purposes. Before diving in, here are some points I need clarified: Where do system applications reside within the Linux ISO? How can I locate the text files and OS version setup instructions inside it? Can I hide or disable the startup button and permanently lock certain applications? Are there open-source icon packs or skins available that match my vision? And how would I integrate those elements directly into the ISO? Thank you for your help!

I possess some familiarity with Linux and altering an ISO is relatively straightforward. It also provides insight into Linux.

If you aim to follow this guide, start with Linux from Scratch. Install Gentoo, compile everything—kernel included—and explore whether this aligns with your goals. Keep in mind that building a distro can be quite challenging, especially since Gentoo has limited documentation aimed at beginners. An alternative option is Arco Linux, but it may not offer the same depth of learning. Instead, consider mastering the complete GNU+Linux ecosystem as defined by POSIX, rather than settling for a precompiled, arch-based system with fixed settings.

Sorry, adjusting an ISO isn't creating a fresh distribution. It requires additional components. The setup relies on the base distro you choose for app placement. I believe Ubuntu/Debian uses "/pool". The OS details are listed in /etc/os-release. Don't start from scratch unless you understand Linux better. For deeper insights, consider LinuxFromScratch.

Begin with simple tasks like setting up your own system or adjusting performance on your machine. For icons, check out the KDE store. The Candy icon pack is a popular choice (https://store.kde.org/p/1305251/). Discover how to build app packages. I recently used Cubic for changing an Ubuntu ISO—switched Unity desktop with Nemo instead of Nautilus before Ubuntu Unity Remix existed.
