    Hopefully this may be of some help, I think it's what you mean:

    If you want to do that you'll have to create your own repo's with upgraded software etc on a server for download. Otherwise if you use a bog standard iso (ubuntu) it'll have the standard repo's (repositories). The repo's are what the software as well as the distro use to update/upgrade

    Go to /etc/apt/sources.list

    Remove the standard Debian ones, it will probably be lenny or squeeze.

    Add your own

    You also have to register a key eg

    apt-key register something.asc


    Sorry for the vague instructions, ive done it before ages ago but i cant find the tutorial i found it off, but thats the basis for it.

    I've seen a tutorial on making a source/repo

    My issue is.. if I do an apt-get dist-upgrade

    we'll....
    How in the world does it know what to do if it dosn't have access to the newest revision?
    ex: v1 has firesheep installed
    ex: v2 has firesheep with youtube script

    how would it know to grab that when you do a dist upgrade..

    It's just if I do multipule revisions and someone is using it as a desktop os, they will not wanna re-install their whole pc

    Im pretty sure the dist-upgrade still reads from the sources.list im not sure though.
