Can't help with the colored text at boot.

I can't remember where I saw the instructions for setting english as default language but try this:
Open the KDE Control Center.
Expand the Personalization Menu (Head icon).
Select Country & Language (Flag icon).
Find the US Flag in the list of countries.
Click Apply which is the second button from the right.

Hope that helps,

Mike

The knoppix-autostart script sets the defualts for language and KDE stuff too. See /etc/init.d...
