Hi. my name is Giacomo Sanchietti and I'm working for a company called Nethesis.
We are working on a CentOS derived distribution like SME Server. It's a minimal CentOS with a software layer on top to add a web configuration interface.
The CD iso, it's a CentOS minimal CD with some extras packages from centos-base yum group, and a kickstart file to automatize the installation process.
We did not rebrand anaconda, so during installation (and first boot) CentOS logo and name will be visible. Is this a problem? Are there any legal issues? Do we need to rebrand all the distro?
Thank you
Hello Giacomo,
I also did a Centos remix and as far as I could understand it gets tricky to use the name/logo if you distribute software outside the official repos. In my case I had to change the name (to Stella) and the artwork. This is what I'm modifying: http://li.nux.ro/download/stella/6/SRPMS/
See also http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Remix, I would imagine some/most of that applies here, too.
