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.

Customizing the Raspberry Pi Ubuntu image (feddit.org)

Hello, I would like to customize the Raspberry Pi Ubuntu image before I flash it to multiple SD cards. I tried to use Cubic: I downloaded the official image which is an img.xz file. I extracted it, and converted the img to iso since Cubic only accepts iso files. However, when I try to add this source iso in Cubic, it complains about having a wrong file format. Can you suggest a better way to try and customize it? I just need to uninstall some software that are there by default, and install others that are not there, nothing crazy really.

Can I run a bash script before I configure Ubuntu when I start it first time? I couldn't find, but maybe I missed it. If I configure it, then run my script and then clone, the clone will inherit the user, language etc settings which I don't want
