How to customize live Ubuntu CD?

I would like to customize my Ubuntu install with my own Wallpaper.

I know where to change the wallpapers

I copy my wallpaper in /usr/share/wallpapers and then modify the contests/xml file in order to use it but thats about it.

how can I also change the following with the same Image:

  • the login image(lightdm)
  • boot screen and shutdown screen(plymouth)
plymouth

  1. 1 - Edit /etc/lightdm/unity-greeter.conf and change "background" value:

    background=/usr/share/backgrounds/warty-final-ubuntu.png

    or you can try this: @Webupd8

    2 - You can try Zorin Splash Screen Manager: @Webupd8, making a copy of the current theme (located at /lib/plymouth/themes/), changing it at your needs and installing it.

    3 - I think the theme used to boot is the same used in shutdown...
