Custom Ubuntu Live CD for Forensic Use

**Overview** This project will need to be completed under NDA.? I will be available via Skype/IM during the project for consultation. Ideal candidate should have extensive experience with Ubuntu and creating custom CD's.? Please... no canned LiveCD's created solely with Remastersys (or other) utilities. The goal is to create a Live CD specifically designed to assist in the creation of forensic images from suspect/evidence computers.? This LiveCD will focus on collection of evidence (forensic acquisitions). Any images, code used during development should be FOSS/GPL compliant and provided to me during completion. ## Deliverables **Requirements** I am looking to have the initial framework for this LiveCD created and documented.? Documentation is extremely important to customizations can be easily made in the future. ? * Ubuntu/Xubuntu 9.10 based Live CD * * initial version to be completed with Ubuntu 9.10? alpha/beta * Strip out non-essential packages * * games, productivity, etc... * The Ubuntu install to USB drive should work * * USB boot devices should retain features * Should be forensically sound. * * automount turned off * default mounts should be read-only * fast boot times (services not essential should be turned off.? ie.? bluetooth, etc.) * Should have at least two boot options.? GUI and Terminal * * bonus if a 3rd boot option can be available for legacy computers (<256MB RAM) * Additional packages and utilities will be added * * binaries to be provided at a later date * Custom menu's focused on forensics * Custom kernel will probably be required * * should support the largest variety of hardware possible (servers, raid controllers, sony firewire cd drives, legacy devices) * additional filesystem support (read-write NTFS), plus others... * Professional look & feel * * custom theme (usplash, theme, etc..).? Can be created in separate project if necessary.? If you don't have graphic skills, bid accordingly and let me know.? This is a secondary requirement to a functional and well documented final product. ## **Deliverables** * Documentation sufficient to recreate all work * * if any scripts are created to create the CD, they should be included with comments/documentation. <!-- --> * Final .iso image for burning/testing * Any other notes/scripts created. * Detailed instructions on how to add additional software/drivers to the LiveCD. ## Platform Ubuntu/Xubuntu 9.10 LiveCD
