Hi:
I like Knoppix, and especially part of the software selection of KnoSciences. For hard drive installation, the manual of Knowsciences specifies the creation of at least two Linux partitions: one for the system and the other for swap space. Accordingly, I have prepared the traditional multipartition setup for Linux. But, the installation process denies the usage of the prepared partitions; it allows the designation of only one single partition for installation. This makes it impossible to share the swap space and the /home directory with another already installed Linux distribution. Is a solution to this issue?
Also, after a hard drive installation will the system retain the special Knoppix characteristics, capabilities and screen layout?
Thanks lorosz
