my network/language/keyboard settings were not remembered
would I need to speficy home=hda1 at every boot or can I make that the default
network? Did you use wifi?
Language, keyboard and /home are not save in the /home repertory. You cannot save them with the LiveCD; but it is possible define them in a LiveUSB.
If you create a LiveUSB, after boot, open a terminal and type
su
(password is root and is not displayed when typing)
leafpad /boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg
(if the stick is formated FAT)
leafpad /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf
(if the stick is formated EXT)
and modify the section
LABEL core
MENU LABEL SliTaz core Live
KERNEL /boot/bzImage
append initrd=/boot/rootfs4.gz,/boot/rootfs3.gz,/boot/rootfs2.gz,/boot/rootfs1.gz rw root=/dev/null vga=normal autologin home=the-uuid-of-the-stick
like this
LABEL core
MENU LABEL SliTaz core Live
KERNEL /boot/bzImage
append initrd=/boot/rootfs4.gz,/boot/rootfs3.gz,/boot/rootfs2.gz,/boot/rootfs1.gz rw root=/dev/null vga=normal autologin home=hda1 kmap=fr-latin1 lang=fr_FR
Note that
- you'll have a home=the-uuid-of-the-stick instruction only if your USB stick is formated EXT
- you have to adapt kmap=fr-latin1 lang=fr_FR to your country
