While I'm waiting to get my hands on a Raspberry pi I thought I'd have a nosy at what is supported in the OS.
It appears that the pi will ship with Fedora Remix, at least initially, or, as it turns out a Fedora Remix - there's potentially loads of them. Anyway a quick look for what a 'remix' is turned up some interesting stuff. Apart from the mainstream distribution there's a 'Spin' and 'Remix'. A 'spin' is 100% Fedora code while a 'remix' can include 3rd party code. Additionally, a 'remix' can have your own logos applied - so you can build your own systems, apply your own logos and you're limited by your imagination really.
Even better, there are tools from Fedora to simplify the whole process. Cool!
This means you can mod the pi with your own remix and include your own configs etc. This wiki gives more details.
There's an Ubuntu toolkit too here.
What if you don't want a pi? You can use these tools to create tailored Live CD/USB/DVD installations.
Magic! A completely customisable OS
