Jari:

I use a spanish keyboard with basic linux 3.2

This is my /etc/rc file:

#!/bin/sh
PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin
e2fsck -pf /dev/hda2 2>/dev/null 
mount -avt nonfs
hostname BasicLinux
ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
route add -net 127.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 lo

##_ACTIVATE_KEYBOARD_Espanol_##
/usr/bin/loadkeys /usr/lib/kbd/keytables/es.map

##_ACTIVATE_PPP_##
insmod slhc
insmod ppp

##_ACTIVATE_LPRINTER_##
insmod parport
insmod parport_pc io=0x3bc
insmod lp

setleds +num
cat /etc/issue


I kept only the loadkeys and es.map files.
Alejandro.
