    how do I create an ENGLISH boot floppy disk?

    I downloaded the latest 3.3 ISO..the English one.

    in the index_en.html file (in Win) I can read:
    Use the mkfloppy.bat script for the regular boot image (German version). Use the command rawrite2 -f boot-en.img -d A (in the KNOPPIX directory) to create an English boot disk.
    went2see in \knoppix, but there's NOT any boot-en.img file...

    could someone please send the file to me, or tell me where to get it?

    thank you!

    (before you ask me: no, I can't simply boot from the CDRom; I've got two and they're both SCSI...but my controller doesn't allow CD-booting, unfortunately...)

    Greetings nommi,

    I think boot-en.img was used in some old versions
    of KNOPPIX. Use boot.img and it should be fine.

    It is likely that the only difference is the "cheat code"
    lang=us in the second line of syslinux.cfg on the floppy.

    This is a help file but it may be out of date. I like to boot
    from floppy disk so that I can make my own scripts run
    at startup.

    Brest Wishes
