Hi everyone,

My system boots off a USB HDD, and I seem to have not been able to make the persistent home option to work, I created sda5 with fat32 and did Knoppix menu -> Configure -> Persistent home. After a few tries with 'home=scan' , 'home=/mnt/sda5', 'home=/dev/sda5', 'home=/mnt/sda5/knoppix.img' etc.

-Knoppix 5.0.1

Questions, questions, questions : Where is the script that handles persistent home live?
When does the persistent menu come up during boot?
Does the scanner only scan for primary partitions and NOT logical?
Can it scan fat32?
:) Whats better? persistent home or Save KNOPPIX configuration?

Thanks. :twisted:
