Create a custom Master page and Page Layouts and install it as a Sharepoint feature in the site collection.
The steps for creating a feature (MOSS) is mentioned by Heater Solomon http://www.heathersolomon.com/blog/articles/servermstpageforsitecollect_feature.aspx
Problem Investigation:
Upon applying my custom master page I got an unusal error File Not Found. I spent few hours identifying the problem and then realised that SPD (Sharepoint designer) changed the path inside the code
Example
Orginal Code
Changed By SPD
Lesson(s) Learnt:
Do not open any files (Stored in file system) using Sharepoint Designer
If the file is already stored in content database, then use Sharepoint designer to modify the code
