I find the solution

Just edit 1 file:
/etc/init.d/knoppix-autoconfig

(...)
### localization
# Allow language specification via commandline. The default language
# will be overridden via "lang=de" boot commandline
LANGUAGE="$(getbootparam lang 2>/dev/null)"
[ -n "$LANGUAGE" ] || LANGUAGE="fr" <--- your country here
(...)

and find in the file your country line...

# french version <-------for me
COUNTRY="fr"
LANG="fr_FR@euro"
KEYTABLE="fr-latin9" <---put your "keymap" here defaut is just "fr"
XKEYBOARD="fr"
KDEKEYBOARD="fr"
CHARSET="iso8859-15"
# Additional KDE Keyboards
KDEKEYBOARDS="de,us"
(...)

if it look like wrong tell me

Voila stoo
:laugh:

You don't need to edit the knoppix-autoconfig file. That would only work for a hard drive install. Besides that is the hard way to do it.

Simple way is at the first boot prompt
boot: dsl lang=es

or

Use th loadkeys command.
Example:
1. menu->Window Manager->exit
2. sudo loadkeys es
3. startx

When you have the keymap working, then add the loadkeys xx to your /opt/bootlocal.sh

Look at the documentation Language Support
