How to Change the Damn Small Linux Internet Homepage then Remaster th Disc?

I Need to remaster a Damn Small Linux disc so that when It boots It brings up a Homepage of my choosing instead of the "getting_started.html" Page that is default in most knoppix based systems. Where is this Configuration at so that I can change the File to use My homepage instead and then Remaster.

Lets say I need to make the homepage be Google for all intents and purposes.

Once I Have the Home page How would I save that file so that I can then remaster the disc to have that Homepage? Then How would i remaster the disc?

Please Help I have tried everything and read all over the internet for help to no avail. I've even tried using GREP to find the config file. Please help me Thanks to anyone who knows.
I'm kind of on a deadline for this so any help will be appreciated.

Try this

In your home directory there is a hidden file called .xinitrc (you need to "ls -a" to see it). The following line opens the dillo browser:

if egrep -qv lowram /proc/cmdline 2>/dev/null; then
dillo /usr/share/doc/dsl/getting_started.html &>/dev/null &
torsmo 2>/dev/null &
fi

I deleted it, which of course made the browser not open at all, but you could probably change "/usr/share/doc/dsl/getting_started.html" to your webpage.
