Problem is, I can't figure out how to actully install Knoppix. I have a bootable CD (that was fun because of the size), and everythign works like a charm when I boot from it, but I can't figure out how to get that image onto the hard disk. One person has told me Knoppix is not intended to install. -- They that would give up essential liberty for temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. -- Benjamin Franklin After booting to Knoppix CD, find the root terminal in the menu. I believe at that point you type either./knx-hdinstall or just knx-hdinstall. -- Ken Thompson Payette, Idaho Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Linux- Coming Soon To A Desktop Near You Registered Linux User #183936 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Perhaps grip can be used to just rip the music although it is intended for converting/compressing them to mp3. Why do you want to do this, just to be able to play them without having the cd inserted or to further process the songs? Best regards, Emil Gcombust will rip a music CD and save to .WAV for you. -- Ken Thompson Payette, Idaho Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Linux- Coming Soon To A Desktop Near You Registered Linux User #183936 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
