I thought I'd try my hand at making a custom puppy. I've been working on this setup for about a month, now. This is the way I run my machine, and only includes the software I use regularly. You could say this puppy is geared towards anyone who uses their computer as a media center.
A lot was removed to make it small enough to boot normally in 256mb ram space. But I've included my current .packages folder, so you can add back anything that you need.

Needless to say, this is my first attempt at creating a custom puppy, and there might be the occasional problem. One problem that I am aware of is the "first-boot purple newbie welcome banner" is still there, but no longer functions. I didn't know where that loaded from, so I don't know how to get rid of it. It goes away after first boot.
This was built for high-res, so it might look funny below 1280x1024.
Anyhow... Here U Go:
