OK, I understand. Maybe you could just fix bug with lithuanian locale -
there are no /usr/share/locale/lt directory and for example when I start
abiword I get AbiWord in lithuanian but only english symbols are
displayed.
Without kde-i18n-lt package /usr/share/locale/lt directory occupies less
than 1 MB. Now I can't even do normal hdinstall, because of this hack
I should reinstall all packages, that contains files in
/usr/share/locale/lt

OK, I will try to do this. Maybe somewhere there are some knoppix
developer
documentation, like PGI has (see
http://hackers.progeny.com/pgi/guide.html)

I know anout this (in my previous letter I said "iso file is correct, I
checked md5 before burning CD".
You don't understand me. I said, that "there are no way to check if CD
is *burned* without errors. Debian has file md5sum.txt *in* CD, but I
don't see anythink like this in knoppix CD :("
This means, that there are no md5 file for every file *inside* CD.

It would be nice, but not necessary if there will be md5 file for every
file *inside* CD like in Debian.
