wattOS R8 / Re: Change Keyboard layout for live USB
« on: July 26, 2014, 12:12:38 PM »
After some more testing with syslinux.cfg I cannot get Wattos te recognise my Azerty keybord.
A pity and a bit strange, in most other distro's, working in live CD or live USB mode, changing the keyboard is quite easy.
I suppose that when installing to hard disk, Wattos gives us the choice of keyboard layout but I did want to test in live mode. I do not want to mess with my one and only hd yet.
So I'll move on and test some other live distros.
Good luck with Wattos to all of you!

Hi Ourasi,

I did try your recommendtions but no luck, still the qwerty keyboard.
Maybe it has something to do with running als live system from usb indtead of from cd.
By the way, I'm using microwatt.
My syslinux is quite different from yours.
The first entry is the default one created by Unetbootin, the second (test) is my adaptation.

label unetbootindefault
menu label Default
kernel /ubnkern
append initrd=/ubninit boot=live config quiet persistent

label test
menu label test
kernel /ubnkern
append initrd=/ubninit boot=live locale=be_FI.UTF-8 console-setup/layoutcode=be config quiet persistent


My intention was to try out the distro without first installing it to hd.
Anyway, thanks again for your time and help!

wattOS R8 / Change Keyboard layout for live USB

Hi all,
Being a recent Windows refugee, I am in the process of trying out several Linux distros.
I installed Wattos on a USB stick (with Unetbootin) and the OS loads just fine on my Easynote laptop. I really like the speed and cleanliness of Wattos but in order to test it some further I would like to be able to change the keyboard layout from US qwerty to BE azerty. Is there a way by adding a line in syslinux.cfg or in some other place? If so, what exactly do I have to add?
Thank you very much for your help
