steps to change files in system.sfs (system.img)

* Ubuntu 10.4 box

* change to shell, press strg+alt+F1

* sudo -i

* aptitude and install squashfs-tools

* modprobe squashfs

* cd /home/administrator

* copy system.sfs (squash file system) to harddisk, in /home/administrator

* mkdir systemsfs

* mount ./system.sfs ./systemsfs -t squashfs -o loop

* copy ./systemsfs/system.img /home/administrator/

* mkdir systemimg

* mount ./system.img ./systemimg -t ext2 -o loop

now cd to systemimg directory and make the changes

eg. change *.kl files for sound F7 (scanncode=65) = mute; F8

(scanncode=66) = volume_down; F9 (scanncode=67) = volume_up

* cd usr/keylayout

* vi *.kl

* change lines

key 113 VOLUME_MUTE
