Hello I would like to share with you my way of doing it. This parameter appear with Live-Helper, and apparently it doesn't work ..yet ! If you append locale=it_IT.UTF-8 to the kernel parameters, it works but partially ! Only a small part of the LiveCD will be translated. As I need a LiveCD in French, I proceed in the following manneer : - In a partition with at least 1 Gb of free space, I create a folder, let's call it root_cd/ in this folder, I launch : lh_config -> this create the debian-live/ folder and the config/ folder under with default config files. Then I edit the config files according to my need. In the file image, for the parameter LIVE_BOOTAPPEND , I put : "=locale=fr lang=fr keyboard=fr xkeyboard=fr quiet splash" . May be I don't need all this parameters but just to be sure :*) (I am not an expert, just a simple user ... I proceed by try and errors(ssssss)) Btw : the minimal and mini config seems to be broken ... I look quickly today and I think there is an error in the script in the hooks/ folder
When it's Ok, I go back to the debian-live folder, and I launch : lh_build This will build an image. When the script is finish, I delete the binary.iso file ..... Then I copy my resolv.conf file to the chroot folder: cp -L /etc/resolv.conf /root_cd/debian-live/chroot/etc/resolv.conf Then I mount special folder /proc and /dev mount -t proc none /home/debian-live/chroot/proc mount -o bind /dev /home/debian-live/chroot/dev just to allow me to have access to the network. Then I chroot on the chroot folder: chroot /root_cd/debian-live/chroot /bin/bash First thing to do, rebuild the locales tables and choose the default language, this must be done each time: dpkg-reconfigure locales Then set the value of some important variables. I want french, change the value to fit your need : this must be done each time: export LANG="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" export LANGUAGE="fr" export LC_ALL="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" To be sure to have it in the LiveCD, I create also a file environment in the /etc/ folder : LANG="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" LANGUAGE="fr" LC_ALL="[EMAIL PROTECTED] " Now you can install/remove everything you need/want. If you have done correctly the previous action, the messages from apt-get should be in your language, without any error from perl or what ever. Don't forget that some packages like iceweasel or openoffice have separate package for the translation. When it's done, first umount the specials folders umount /proc umount /dev then exit the chroot environment. So now go to the hidden folder .stage/ and delete all the files starting by binary_ rm binary_* but not the others files .... then go back to debian-live/ folder and launch the binary creation: lh_binary then you should end up with a iso image in your language ... As I said, I am not an expert, so feel free to correct me, if I am wrong or if you know a beter way !! Hope it's help ericc On 4/2/07, Kai Hendry <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

What's happened here? I noticed this now in my etch builds, where I swear it was working before. :) initrd=/live.386/initrd.img boot=casper username=user hostname=debian
