[KSB2] The Knoppix UnionFS uses RAM for the r/w part. The database should just be on a hard drive or USB flash memory. Not a big deal one way or the other. Regular Knoppix provides an icon to mount r/w storage. Oralux (Knoppix for the visually impaired) requires that it be done at a text mode interface. Regards -- Bhaskar
