Once again, this offer is a simple rebuild based on an official Fedora
6 LiveCD which is Gnome based + your own selection of missing packages
you need.  I'm not going to start a whole new distro complete with
existing any distro out there.  In fact, you are the only one who will
receive this *personalized* distro from me.

Now, let's start over again.
1) Test drive the Official Fedora 6 Live CD
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-announce-list/2006-December/msg00007.html
2) You notice a few packages are missing from Official LiveCD.
ex) system-config-network
3) Make a list of missing packages you need to be added to your
*personalized* LiveCD.
ex) system-config-network, gome-system-monitor and your own wallpaper.
4) Send me a private email with the package list and your shipping address.
5) I'll *try* to build your personalized LiveCD with your selection of
package added and ship it in 24 hours.

Please note your selection of package should not contain any
proprietary software and must come from official core or extras
repositories.

For your convenience, here is the list of official packages from
Fedora 6 core and extras:

[2] http://fedoranews.org/tchung/livecd/personal/extras6.txt

Still not clear about my offer? Please contact me in private.
