Other Help Topics :: boot with the right keyboard from live-cd



is there an easy way to boot from live-cd with the right keyboard layout from the start (before typing cheatcode) ?
can it be done by editing a file and then overwriting it on the cd ?
or does it require remastering ?

step by step instruction would be nice...

as i now understand you remaster your livecd.

i think yout should be able to make a change in isolinux.cfg.
change lang=us to lang=fr or some thing like that.
you could even add mydsl_dir=(/optional/jeux)

i don't know if reburning it using MS windows and nero can be called remastering. and since i'm not working on my computer here, partitioning the hard drive to do a real remaster is out of question.

i didn't know which file to edit. now i think i will be able to succeed.
is there anything special that i should be aware of before editing (like keeping the exact same file size or things like that) ?
and won't reburning isolinux.cfg on the cd using multisession prevent it from booting ?

i am not sure about the cdrom
but i have tried it with the syslinux.cfg from the boot floppy and that works fine

edited isolinux.cfg and burned it to the cd
booted from the cd...
tried to type some cheatcode... saw that changes weren't taken into account at this point
waited for fluxbox to start
tried some typing and got proof that it didn't work
checked if editing was taken in account by opening  isolinux.cfg in scite
it was...
but my keyboard is still not well mapped :(
