:shock:
I'm trying to install Linksysmon on one of my hd partition.
but when I start "make install", the script tries to mkdir
in /usr/local/lib/perl
then
make: *** [pure_site_install] error 255
I understand that when we use knoppix from cd, there's some
limitations but is there a way ?

my question is :

how do I install an apps. when using Knoppix (no hdinstall) :?:

I have /dev/sda4 (zip 100mb with my website)
I have /dev/sdb1 (usb sandisk 64 mb, having apache conf)
I have /dev/hda1 and hda3 (persistent config)

Thanks !
(Beside that problem, everything works pretty well)

Use lots of symlinks:

mkdir /hd/usr/local/lib -p
cd /hd/usr
ln -s /KNOPPIX/usr/* .
cd local
ln -s /KNOPPIX/local/* .
cd lib
cp -Rp /KNOPPIX/usr/local/lib/* .

Then do your make install. You'll probably have to do this to a few different directories, but in the end everthing can work out fine.

Hope this helps,
