Is it possible to create a Linux setup / installer with music in it?

Just wondering, because I want to maybe create my own Linux distro and want my own setup / installer for it.

Thank you for your help.

obviously you can put any music files into your own distro.

It's funny. One uses the installer hypothetically once or twice unless you distro hop like a mad man (guilty). But that is a great idea. I don't think any installer for anything does that. I know for Windows Cortana talks to you. Quite annoying. But some elevator music would be awesome.

I think it should be rather easy but we'd have to know how you intend to install this distro. Plenty of disto's have rolling help or tips. Many installers are just following some set of steps.

Pragmatically speaking, most Linux installers are executed from the command line. Because you very well might be installing on a "headless server" system which doesn't even have a video card or music capabilities. Therefore, packaging systems conduct their vital work in silence, and many individual software packages rely on make install. Linux folks don't need to be "mindlessly entertained."
