Saving Configuration Settings

[RG58]

I've downloaded Knoppix onto CD and set it up okay. I struggled to install a shared printer but now have it set up okay. I've also learnt how to adjust the regional settings to UK along with the associated keyboard.
However, if I save the configuration to a USB stick, all that is saved are the printer settings.

I can open up the config settings on boot up using 'Knoppix myconfig=scan' or I can boot up the UK settings using 'knoppix lang=UK', but my first question is how can I do both?

Finally, I would like to do away with the CD and transfer everything to USB stick which will make it easier for my children to use the system. I've found various posts on instruction on how to do this, but is there a way of editing the programme to include the printer and language settings so that all they have to do is insert the USB stick and switch on their PC?

As a 'newbie' I would be grateful of any answers in a "step by step" format.

Thank you in advance for any help from other forum members.

JUST A QUICK UPDATE
Saving the config file to floppy worked just fine - both language and printer setting saved okay. I compared the two files between the USB Stick and Floppy and they are almost exactly the same size. I don't know why, but if I insert the USB stick when the Knoppix boot-up page appears (instead of leaving it it all the time) everthing is fine. I assume it is something related to my bias.
Apologies if I have wasted anyone's time trying to resolve my original question.

Knoppix myconfig=scan lang=UK

Making a USB version is described at:
from within Knoppix (I used this to make the 5.3.1 DVD version on an 8GB key):
http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/Bootable_USB_Key
This also has instructions how to modify syslinux.cfg as part of the process of creating the bootable key so that, in your case, you can add "myconfig=scan lang=uk" to be the default.
