knoppix 3.4 on hard disk
Boot Knoppix on CD
Mount your knoppix HD partition read/write.
In a terminal do:
type 'su' to become root
type 'mount -rw /dev/hda5 /mnt/hda5'
type 'kate' to open kate file editor as root
Open the file /mnt/hda5/etc/lilo.conf
Edit the lines 'append=' in the 'image=' section of lilo.conf to add 'lang=us'
Code:
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.26
label="Knoppix24"
root=/dev/hda5
initrd=/boot/initrd.img-2.4.26
append="lang=us apm=power-off ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init nomce quiet nofstab wheelmouse"
read-only
Save the file.
Reboot into Knoppix on HD. You will still be in German but immediately open a terminal and type 'sudo lilo' to run lilo to implement your changes.
Reboot. You should now be in English.
