Updating Knoppix

[Twulf]

Is there a way I can update Knoppix?

Make a backup of your persistent memory!

Now you can try within Knoppix V.7.4.1 the new version of "Install KNOPPIX to flash disk". There you'll find the options

Keep ONLY personal data and settings ..
Keep ALL modifications ...


But for me this features doesn't work. Perhaps other peoples have other experinces.

Yes BACKUP !!!
I have never come across a successful update. Knoppix is in many ways a frozen snapshot just as a Read-only CD- DVD. I think the fact that unlike Read-only media that you can
save data on a Knoppix partition, confuses people, into thinking Knoppix is the same as a Hard-drive install, which obviously it is not. I got caught out by this confusion early on.
