 Excuse my ignorance but this keeps comming up Jeremy .. You want to make a
 remaster of knoppix with Xastir on it so dummies like me who are Windows
and
 DOS engendered can get a easy track to Xastir ..
 Youve lost me ..

 Have you ever heard of Knoppix AFU ?? Thats what got me started on Xastir
..
 I am not sure what your trying to acheive except a Knoppix remaster with
 Xastir and some local maps for yourself.
 Maybee you can fix the lesstif / menu issues as well but its not as if your
 doing anything new..

 And yes it will run in english as well..  Its allready been done .. Its off
 the shelf bootable Xastir for dummies (like me) ..
