Ok. I don't know how to find the Dos swap file to delete. I looked for "Knoppix.swp" but couldn't find it.

you could use cfdisk and change the swap partition to a linux . What ever partition it is use mkfs after you change the type to format it for ext2 linux filetype. as in( cfdisk /dev/hda and it will show you the partitions on hda and allow you to change types  . Then you would do a (after you reboot in order for cfdisk to register changes)  mkfs /dev/hda1 (if hda1 is the partition you want to format. mkfs defaults to a ext2 file system. Marty
