v6.2 apparently wants for you to go

# apt-get update
# apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree

I tried the 2 apt-get commands listed in this thread however I get these messages

E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
root@Microknoppix:/home/knoppix# apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree

root@Microknoppix:/home/knoppix#

is this because I'm running the OS from the CD and not installing it on the hard drive? My first thoughts are it is trying to write onto the CD-Rom and can't overwrite the files... how do I bypass this. I can't seem to find any posts that deal with this issue.

try command

sudo apt-get update&&sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
as you where not root you had not permission to install
