Hello!!

Please be patient with me as I am new to Linux and especially Knoppix. I recently downloaded the Live CD (version 6.0.1) and booted into what looks like "Lightweight XII Desktop Environment". When I look through the various menus (Settings, System Tools, etc.) I do not see QTPARTED. On the desktop I only see "My Documents" and nothing else. Do I need to install something or change something in order to gain access to all the tools, etc? I'm very confused because I've read several postings in the forums here about people using QTPARTED, but I can't figure out how they accessed it.

If you can be of help it would be VERY much appreciated. Thanks so much for understanding that I'm a newbie. Take care and enjoy the rest of your day!

Nevermind, seems I was able to figure it out on my own. I downloaded the DVD (5.3.1) which has QTPARTED. It appears that version 6.0.1 no longer has it and instead uses command line based "parted". Thanks anyway.

Cheers!

First switch to root by using SU command and then type:
apt-get install qtparted
it tries to download and install qtparted which is about 5Mg
