Hello everyone.

i am trying to install knoppix 5 on a dell latitude cpx but when i fdisk /dev/hda it says that it cant find /dev/hda.
when i do fdisk /UNIONFS/dev/hda it succesfully opens and i can see the hd. When i do sudo knx2hd it detects the /dev/hda but when it starts qtparted it only shows /dev/hdc.

I successfully install knoppix 3.8 on the same laptop and in qtparted instead of showing /dev/hda and /dev/hdc it showed /UNIONFS/dev/hda and /UNIONFS/dev/hdc. Can anyone help?? any little information will help,. thanks

Do you want to create a separate Knoppix 5.0 installation or is it o.k. to overwrite your existing installation of Knoppix 3.8?
