Thanks for your time and remarks, that I forward to Diantre, coordinator of the Spanish (Latin America) team.

FYI Diantre, who lives in Costa Rica did most of the translation, that was reviewed by other team members who live in Mexico and Uruguay,
so all Latin Americas (North, Central and South) are represented, but the team has no member speaking Spanish from Spain.

Unfortunately I don't speak Spanish at all (at least beyond "quiero un café con leche, por favor :-) so I can't help there.

About ctrl-alt-supr, I know that in some countries Spanish speaking people use US keyboards (that show del instead of supr) but I don't think we can do much about that.

About lilo, IIRC I often fail to load it at reboot after installation if not installed on the MBR, even with a genuine Slackware installer, but maybe my memory doesn't serve me well.
