create Ubuntu Distribution based on my home directory?
I have many programs install on my Ubuntu and on my home directory which are sourced in.bashrc as well.
I just want to create my own distribution based on Ubuntu.
I have tried uck and pingbuy builder. uck did not do the job perfectly and somehow just made a copy on my default root.
Pingbuy builder is much more better but when I try to create the distro it is creating based on my hard drive.
I have 300 GB hard drive with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS installed in it and pingbuy builder is making about 300,000 blocks for selected distribution.
All I want is this:
I have some programs installed in ~/src and they are sourced in ~/.bashrc and some of them are in /opt.
I just want to create a distribution to include just my root and my installed program in /home/$USER.
my result must be an .iso file and when I try to install it, this will install all my programs in / and /home/$USER as DEFAULT
Thanks.

May I ask for what purpose you want this ? Is it for a sake of back up or are you planning on deploying more computers based on your defaults ?

I am not sure about creating a specific ISO corresponding to your system but maybe better idea would be using something like puppet or cfengine for deployment and maintenance ? Or you could create a preseed file for your installation and put in it all the software you want to install ?

your explanation is not much clear for me, anyway I think I can figure it out but searching your keywords. thanks. @OskarL
