Slow ubuntu boot from pen drive; get rid of the language prompt


Hi, I have Ubuntu 9.1 on 4GB pen drive. I’m writing this from it actually. I set this up about a year ago and use it on several machines for different reasons. How do I get rid of the language prompt and on some of the older machine it takes at least 10 to 20 minutes to boot. Thanks for the help in advance

Michael

Hope a late answer is better than none. I found a thread about setting languages. Take alook here http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...d-line-438947/

Slow booting on old machines should be due to usb.1. Usb version 1 is just damn slow. Maybe get a smaller version of linux for those and setup up your stick to have you select which OS to boot.
Check out http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/index_de.html or http://distrowatch.com/ for search and destroy ehm decoy... na damn army times. nam got the bad of me
