* 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
