avoid keyboard menu selection during the boot
« on: May 15, 2010, 01:06:25 PM »
I have used UNetBootin to install PCLinuxOS live on a usb flash drive.
I wish to know if and how it is possible to skip keyboard menu selection step during the boot saving my choice for all future times.
Thank you.

Once the OS is installed, you will no longer be prompted to select a keyboard.

Nope. Sorry about that. The USB has no persistence, in other words, no way to save changes you made. Please see this thread for an excellent how-to:
