Hi
I was wondering if is possible to install knoppix on top of my existing debian partition (installed from knoppix)
I ask because my old installation could never recognize my sound card and I could never get it to work manually. I would just like to "update" my partition with a working sound card (sound works with 3.2 cd)
Yea yea, I know I should just hack my way around to get sound working but I've did everything I could (not much, but still...) and never got anything working.
I guess what I want is not exactly to reinstall a new knoppix but "repair" my debian with this latest CD... If all come to worse I will just reinstall but I'd like to be sure I can save my /home directory first...
Oh and I have another question... how do I add knoppix/debian to grub? I could not find bzImage anywhere is there an other place where my grub.conf file should point to?
Thanks for your time...
