Persistent Disk Image

[rspiteri]

I am using the latest version of Knoppix (5.1.1) and I created a persistent disk image. If another version comes out, ex: 5.2, can i use the persistent disk image i created with 5.1.1., and merge it with the new version 5.2?

Quoting Mr. Klaus Knopper:


It should be possible, however, some of the base files like the installed package database and kernel modules will be different. For the kernel modules, it should be sufficient to delete /KNOPPIX.IMG/lib/modules/old-kernel-version, and for the installed package database, you can probably just issue an "apt-get update".

Thanks Mr. Knopper
