i want to create from an already installed linux distribution (ubuntu, fedora, debian, etc) a custom installable version of it, to make myself more clear, i want to install in several computers a custom linux distribution, with the software i wanna use and the configuration i choose. It's tiresome to install the same software and make the same configuration over and over again, so i wanna know a way to create from an already installed and configured linux distribution an installable version of it to use it in any computer.

I will appreaciate any help you can give me

You need to write an installer script to copy any binaries to the correct location, then compile them correctly. Also fr any OS dedicated installer like RPM etc. then all you need to do is burn that and the appropriate install files onto a cd. You could add it to the OS DVD, or a different disk. Then either run it manually, or write an init script to call it as the system starts up. You could also set the init script to finally delete itself and remove the rc links to it after it runs.

The best way to handle it would be to create an image of it on your disk and create an Eltorito boot iso image to install it or run it as a live CD:
