Writeable install images

I was recently installing a set of machines, and used the provided .ISO images on a USB stick to do so.
That worked fine, but it would’ve been nice if I could’ve customised the image after the first install as it would’ve made each subsequent install a bit quicker.
I couldn’t do this because the ISO filesystem is read-only.
Would it be possible to provide (eg) an EXT2 or VFAT or something image file that could be downloaded, burnt to a USB stick, and then modified after first boot please?
