Run `iso-make`, you will be prompted with a screen where you can choose what packages (from the registered ones) to download for the installation, once again you need the packages listed in step 1 for even the most basic installs, so add them for a healthy install. After you're done choosing the packages and downloading them, choose the "done" option at the very bottom and let the iso generate.

In cfdisk you need at least one partition with the type set as "linux", you can also add one with a "swap" label as long as it is about 1.5 times as big as your ram storage (but this is optional), if you're on uefi create a 500 MB fat32 partition and if you're on mbr/legacy tick the 'bootable' option for the linux partition. Make sure to memorise or write down what partiton (/dev/name) is used for what as you will need to fill that in later.
