Can I buy a USB pen with Knoppix already installed?

[francesmidgley]

Hi,

I am new to this forum and to Knoppix.
I have tried Knoppix and I would like to boot it from a USB flash pen but the instructions warning me not to delete my harddrive scare me to death.

Can anyone tell me where I can buy a USB pen with Knoppix already installed?
It would be great if the pen was large enogh for me to save my documents to it too.

I hope one of you knowledgeable people can help me ... Regards, Frances

Hi Rusty,

Thank you for your reply; it is much appreciated.

I have had a look at the site and I have two further questions ..
1. The Linux software on the site is described as 'THIN' ... do you know what the difference is between THIN and non-THIN Knoppix?
2. I was hoping for more space on the disk for my data but this site only sells 1GB pens ... do you know of a supplier that provides a larger capacity pen with the software preinstalled? Or is there another solution?

By the way ... the reason I want to use one USB pen is my Flybook laptop does not have a DVD or CD drive and it only has 1 spare USB drive.

Thanks again for your help!
Regards, Frances
