Hi,
I'm trying to get Knoppix running for the first time to try and recover some files from a laptop with a suspected hard drive failure.
X window loads as far as the title screen and mouse cursor then crashes.
I'm getting the message: 'X Window session terminated with errors'
Its also throwing some IO errors when it tries to enter stand by mode.
Is the a way round this, or, is it possible to use the shell to copy files from the internal hard disk to an external hard disk?
Thanks
