KPackage

[mimes]

I am trying to install a .deb package (really a Native KDE Window Decoration), but everytime I try to install the package, I get the error message: "<ix/Downloaded Stuff/crystal_0.7.7-2_i386.deb' ;echo RESULT=$?
dpkg: unable to access dpkg status area: Read-only file system
RESULT=2". What does this mean? My harddrive is read and write enabled, I checked. And how can I resolve this issue?

Is there by anychance that kpackage did not ask you for password before trying to install that package?

Try dpkg -i crystal_0.7.7-2_i386.deb

mimes,

Were you superuser when attempting that?

Are you running from CD? (read-only medium)

I am running from a CD, but I have figured out that i need to install Knoppix to my HD, but I am having a LOT of trouble with this.
