Yet another cool answer to the system-on-cd question

The FreeSBIE port is a collection of scripts which help a user to create CDs/DVDs containing a complete operating system based on FreeBSD. It is used as “live-cd” and boots straight from CD. Consequent use of filesystem compressing techniques allow to include a huge number of applications on a single disc.

Creation of the CDs/DVDs is completely dialog based as well as building and installing of packages.
