Different behaviour between knoppix and my remastered one

[dsblank]

Try this: make a new remastered version without running "apt-get update" and see if that causes the menus to look funny.

Good news: I tried this experiment (did not run "apt-get update") and the menus are fine. The remastered image was over 700 MB, but I used the over-burn option in xcdroast, and it worked fine.

So, for now, I just won't update the packages.
