You can modify /etc/init.d/knoppix-autoconfig to skip dhcp, the section is between 743 and 756.  Just commenting out that section should do the trick.

If you have installed DSL to harddisk and ran netcardconfig once your settings are saved but not used during bootup.  You can return to your previous settings by stopping and starting eth0.  Try the following commands.

sudo ifdown eth0
sudo ifup eth0

works for me.

V0.5

start an xterminal
write "sudo su" + return
start nedit from xterminal
load file "/etc/lilo.conf for editing.
find line : append="hda=scsi hdb=scsi hdc=scsi.............

write "nodhcp" at the end of line.

My line:

append="hda=scsi hdb=scsi hdc=scsi hdd=scsi hde=scsi hdf=scsi hdg=scsi hdh=scsi apm=power-off nomce nodhcp "

save lilo.conf
quit nedit
run lilo from xterminal.

Then it should work after next reboot.

Thats it !!
