R D Wheaton,

There are several things you should consider:

1) You need to be prepared to honor the terms of all of the licenses of
all of the software components within your customized Linux OS. There is
no true "single" license for Fedora, for example.

2) Fedora 12 is very dated, and there are many known, and unfixed
security issues. We would not recommend that you use such an old base of
Linux, unless you are prepared to do extensive modifications to close
these security holes.

3) Should you decide to do this anyways, you will need to be sure to
comply with our Trademark Guidelines, specifically concerning the
removal of the Fedora trademarks (text and logos) from the offering. Our
full Trademark Guidelines can be found here:

If you have additional questions, please feel free to direct them to me.

Thanks,
