How To build Own MAC OSX Distro?

Hello, everyone.

I am thinking to create my distro.
and I am little bit confused from reading some documents. because of this , I need to ask you.

I have running OSX box. and I have OSX retail DVD in this case, How Can I create new Distro which is running on OSX86.

for my distro , I am thinking to create General Driver Support Distro; this means that I will not include ATI or Nvidia Drivers to DVD mkext in other words, I will not put all driver to default loading drivers.

Why I am doing this, because I read that some drivers conflicts each other and because of this , sometimes people can not pass the initial step for setup.

For example, some nvidia drivers can cause conflict to ethernet driver and because of this some people stuck at black screen

in this case , I want to create Distro which is working stable and not conflicted driver but It should solve the BIOS, chipset problems and general problems.
for example , ATI IXP SB700 support.

As a result of this, my distro will come basic driver support , for Video , it will get VESA mode than people can use necessary kext for themselves.

now , I am waiting distro tutorials and ideas related to problem and kexts to solve common problems related to hardware and OSX problem and to create stable Distro.

Thanks for help!
