Hello,

I am using Live CD Versions 3.4 and 3.7 of Knoppix and they are great. My question is whether the new version 4 Knoppix Live DVD will support the RAR and UN-RAR commands. From reading other threads in the forum it appears that un-rar will not work in any of the live CD versions.

Many thanks,
Bob White

P.S. I have had no problem using Ark to unzip Zip files. It is only the Rar files I cannot do.

you can probably use klik to get the compression programs if its not default on the CD. klik.berlios.de (? not sure google it)

Thanks for the replies. What I really meant to ask is whether Ark will actually work with rar files in Version 4 of Knoppix? It does not work in Versions 3.4 and 3.7. ( It works perfectly with zip files, far easier than Winzip in Windows.)
