No no no...Knoppix is a CD-based distro. It runs FROM the CD. I
think they call it a "Live CD". You boot from it, do whatever it is
you want to do, then go on your merry way. I keep knoppix around as
a Utility CD for dealing with systems that don't seem to want to boot
on their own anymore for some reason. (That reason is usually that I
did something I shouldn't have and completely screwed it up...but
we're not going to discuss that!) ;-)
