It would be very nice for novice users if Knoppix was able to:
Mount windows partition
Extract ethernet configuration (ip, netmask, gateway, dns..) from windows settings.
Extract SMB configuration (Workgroup, Client Name...).
PPP settings (or ASDL, or whatever).
As far as I know, none of the actual Linux distributions can do this, it would be very cool if Knoppix was the first in implementing it :wink: . That way it would be plug 'n' work even with the network!
Maybe the people here have some other ideas of some more interesting information that could be extracted from windows partition...
