Knoppix HD autoconfiguration (timezone)
Dear All,
I would like to discuss a feature, which is looking as a minor bug for me. This is work of autoconfiguration script knoppix-autoconfig, which change timezone on every boot depending on selected language. This is, indeed, very inconvinient and confusing for HDD installation. And, at the moment, could not be turned OFF except editing this script.
Recently I was helping one of my Dutch (timezone Europe/Amsterdam) friends who wanted language to be EN and was upset with timezone setting not saved between booting resulting with time being incorrect.
Possible solutions:
1) Modify knoppix-autoconfig to allow such autoconfigurations to be switched OFF and add a new option for booting.
2) Make a new script knoppix-hdd-autoconfig which would avoid doing a lot of staff which is constant for HDD installation (including changing fstab!).
3) Use Configuration save mode also for HDD installations so all customisations are re-applied every boot like for CDROM version.
Note: I'm a long time Debian user but spent too much time to fight against broken dependencies and missing modules, so migrated most of my installations from Debian Sarge to Knoppix 3.[7|8].
Pavel.
