But there is your language in that list to be choosed?

If you start X as chrooted ('su - knoppix' and 'startx'), you must copy /etc/sysconfig/i18n to your remaster partition before your locale setting are in use. Just try what locale command says. If locale is Posix, then your i18n file in not copied.

The same thing you can do by running /etc/init.d/knoppix-autoconfig. It copies same files to /etc/sysconfig as if you run Knoppix from CD. If you are using menu based scripts from Fabian Franz (as used in UnderScore's how-to), cleanup process clean all unneeded files. So you can run knoppix-autoconfig safely.

As an example, here's my locale command from hard disk:
Code:
tapsa@linux:~$ locale
LANG=fi_FI@euro
LC_CTYPE="fi_FI@euro"
LC_NUMERIC="fi_FI@euro"
LC_TIME="fi_FI@euro"
LC_COLLATE="fi_FI@euro"
LC_MONETARY="fi_FI@euro"
LC_MESSAGES="fi_FI@euro"
LC_PAPER="fi_FI@euro"
LC_NAME="fi_FI@euro"
LC_ADDRESS="fi_FI@euro"
LC_TELEPHONE="fi_FI@euro"
LC_MEASUREMENT="fi_FI@euro"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="fi_FI@euro"
LC_ALL=
tapsa@linux:~$
