Question in remastering Puppy after localization

Hi,
After localization, I used Dougal - Remaster CD Utility to remaster my new puppy. But after remastering, the locale sets back to "en_AU" (not my "vi_VN.UTF-8"), IceWM theme sets to default, desktop backgroup also set to default,....How to fix this problem ? I'm using Puppy 215CE. I think I should add some script to fix this problem. :cry:

think i experienced this issue a few versions before. the problem probably lies in the /etc directory where most of the local settings are stored. Remastering will ask you to decide if the disk is run on a particular machine or any machine in general thus some of the settings in /etc would not be recorded on the disk, depending on your answer.

i believe it is the case but i am not sure if that remastering algorithm has changed since then.

root and etc

Yes, until someone points to the exact place where the setting is stored, you will have to check /root (especially the hidden files) and /etc, as this is the place where remastering preserves some unmodified directories and files.
