hi oh yes i understand! - smile I made such a live-Cd based on vinux (ubuntu) just in german, and some rescue-software then i'd suggest setting up an virtual pc. To test i used vinux. http://vinux.org.uk/downloads/old/1.4/Vinux-1.4.iso Advantage is: remastersys is allready installed, and Orca is working. I set it to speak german, to use my brailledisplay and remasterd it. again in backup-mode, but i have had no personal data stored to it. The imagesize was about 760mb. good success! lutz, p.s: if you have more questions, don't hesitate to ask On 06.04.2009 09:54, Daniel Dalton wrote: > On Mon, Apr 06, 2009 at 11:13:10AM +0000, lutz kaiser wrote: > >> Hi, >> > Hi! > > >> i 've done sucessfully a simular thing. >> I chose "remastersys" to do so. >> > Had a quick look around.
