Hi everyone.
Let me just say that I am very new to Linux so please forgive my ignorance.
I have installed Knoppix (5.1 i think) to a 1GB USB flash drive using instructions I found on the wesbite http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/01/01/usb-knoppix-510
I can boot up no problem however, I would like to set it up to my liking and save the changes so that when I restart, it is exactly how I left it. Even if I use a different computer. I believe that if I click on Knoppix > Configuration > Save Configuration I am supposed to be able to save those changes to the USB drive. However, when I do this, it tells me that the drive (/dev/sda1 i think) is in use and I cannot do that.
Is there a better way of achieving what I am trying to do? Basically, I want to use Linux from the USB drive on my laptop at work and my desktop at home and for any changes or documents to be saved and restored when I boot up.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
Joe
