What are the prerequisites for using UCK?

You will need a fairly recent working Ubuntu installation of the same
architecture as the Live CD image you want to customize (cf. the FAQ
on Limitations / Caveats) on either a virtual machine or a workstation with
a sufficently large disk.

The machine you run UCK on should have a direct connection to the
Internet if you want to update packages or add a language. If you can
only access the Internet via proxies, you (currently) will need to modify
some of the scripts yourself.

You will need to have root access on the machine you perform the
customizations on.

Although it may be possible to run UCK on other distributions, this
is not a supported setup.
