knoppix login

[benmayim]

My knoppix 3.2 self-booting CD automatically logs in as "knoppix". Therefore, my old windows hard drive files are unalterable, undeleteable, etc. How can I login to knoppix self-booting CD with all permissions granted for these windows files? Or is there no way unless I install knoppix to the hard drive?

[Tech2k]

Use the "root shell" in kde or set a passwd with "sudo passwd" or start in textmode as root with "knoppix 2" cheatcode then startx /usr/bin/icewm" (for example if you want x).Many orher ways are covered in the forums and docs on this site.
