Now that Canonical has released Ubuntu 21.10 (Impish Indri) you can use my latest release of ‘isorespin.sh‘ to respin Ubuntu ISOs:
and Lubuntu ISOs:
as well as the other supported flavours but remember to install the additional package 'zstd' before respinning as this release uses a new compression tool.
Please remember to donate if you find my work useful.

First off, thanks for building this. I just recently acquired a Compute Stick and wanted to put Linux on it to use a mobile computer for travels whenever we can again or at least to have something to play with in the living room.
What's with all the random text at the end of the script?
In my editor it comes up with 43954 lines of code, of which is set as follows:
Looks like the actual script ends at line 4152 but then between lines 4251 and 43954 that is just a bunch of what appears to be garbage but it could be a secure has or something important. Wanted to bring this up before I run this just in case.

ps.. I added the numbers at the start of the lines for reference, those are not in the code.. (4150-4153, [...], 43950-43954.
Also, can this be ran on a Mac or is this strictly able to run on Linux?
The script can add GRUB's 32-bit bootloader so these files are added to the script (encoded using 'base64') so they don't have to be downloaded each time the scipt is run. Look for 'base64' in the script if you want a better understanding.
I've never tried but probably not as I'm not sure all the Linux commands are provided in the Unix base Mac OS uses and even then whether the syntax/options are the same.
