Am I to understand that knoppix pre-installs everything on the iso? How does knoppix save the user data?knoppix lets you save the config files to hd and/or create a persistent file on the hd for the usr. Works well, but as has been said, It runs slower than dsl on older machines.

As I see it, "much of what we know today as dsl" comes from Robert's hard work and innovative thinking. DSL actually has very little in common with Knoppix once the knoppix-autoconfig script finishes its run.
i agree 100% mikshaw. mega-props to both Robert and John!
torpTorp..Hey, I'm glad you are excited about k5 but I was not compareing dsl and knoppix. I was pointing out that knoppix was loaded with excessive duplication.. .it does need a powerfull unit to run well... and needs.. a good note pad, a mediun fast loading text editer with spell check, and a full blown word processor....Joe, mary,and jane added to that is just bloat. .I agree it has a lot of cool stuff..maby they deleted the bloat in 5..will get on that...any way enjoy..it's just talkKnoppix can also take less time to boot see "Acelerated knoppix" it's a knoppix with a cloop file with it's block reanged for booting more quicklyNext Page...
