Hi

I was using Knoppix for a while, since Knoppix a la Mexicana (a remasterizing version to Mexico) (Knoppix 3.4) to last 5.01.

Still I don't have clear what method to pick is better: Beginner, Debian-like or Like CD.
I know some differences, between beginner and Knoppix-like, but sometimes in Debian-like some devices don't work, and for newbies is diffcult configure it. For that is better Begginer, but is not the recomended method. I read about Debian-like don't install all packages that Begginer do 多is true?. I read about the methods to install, but is not enough for me. At internet I didn't found much information about this, only the essential, that Knoppix page say. 多Anyone can say more?

Thanks

Have you rejected the obvious choice, install real Debian Etch? And if so why?

Either do what Harry suggests or a HD install of Kanotix. Kanotix has the (possible) advantage of a neat installer with options to fix and upgrade from the next CD. It's based on unstable, which tends to be a bit more up to date than Etch (which -- if I'm up to date with Debian labelling) is testing.
