however when I burn it I get default KNOPPIX theme with thier menus.

I made sure to overwrite /etc/skel and I made sure that I made the change on line 128 correct however it looks like
for the menus it takes them from somewhere else.

can anyone please help me ?
First, please edit your post and delete the quoted HOWTO from your post as it is annoying to quote the entire thing and will only serve to confuse search engines.

Second, as I have provided exact steps & exact commands in the HOWTO, you must provide the same level of completeness. In order to figure this out so that all people can benefit, I will need your exact commands and also the very detailed info of any deviations you have made from the HOWTO. I have run the HOWTO commands verbatim ( in a ssh windows & I was able to copy & paste them) so I know that they work. This means I have a high confidence level of the HOWTO. This seems to point out that people who are having problems are doing something different.

Third, I think some of the problems people are having are due to booting Knoppix differently. Notice in the /etc/X11/Xsession.d/45xsession file that there is more than one rsync command. These separate rsync commands are used to make changes to the /home/knoppix directory based on how the user is booting knoppix (ie: as a normal Knoppix sesssion, as a saved on floppy or USB knoppix session, or a poor man's install).

Thanks,
