Knoppix Latest build and USB storage ?

[castlesoft]

Hi all..

I have a couple of questions re: the latest Knoppix livecd.

1) Can I store my home directory/config/desktop etc to my USB Pendrive ? when I use the live cd..???
2) Is OpenOffice 1.1 included ?
3) Is Java 1.4.2_02 included ?
4) Is Evolution 1.4.x included ?

Finally if some apps are not include, are there instructions on how to modify the ISo etc..?

Any info much appreciated.

Yes. Use the option from the Knoppix folder in your K menu



2) Is OpenOffice 1.1 included ?


Yes.


3) Is Java 1.4.2_02 included ?


I'm not sure about this. I the Blackdown Java package is used.



4) Is Evolution 1.4.x included ?


No. There is no version of Evolution on the CD...not enough space.



Finally if some apps are not include, are there instructions on how to modify the ISo etc..?


Yes. Check the following places.

Is there a legal reason why Java 1.4.2_02 can't be installed ?
It would be nice to have it included..
