I'd like to build custom Ubuntu installation CD's daily (CRON job). Think Daily Build but with custom packages coming from a text file. Packages would be a mix of some official Ubuntu packages as well as some custom packages from other sources.

Any help would be appreciated but I'm specifically looking for suggestions on what tools/software I could use to get this done. Less software = better :)

This sounds like cdimage (which is what creates the Daily Build, and other Ubuntu images). You can read more about it and how to configure it here:

Great, thank you! Most probably I will end up dissecting scripts from cdimage to make it work exactly like I need it. –  Slava Yanson Oct 5 '11 at 3:50
