I want to write how to use Knoppix for laptop installations
without a CD-Rom. With the help of an running OS or with
plugin the hd in a runnig PC is it possible to Copy the
ISO to the hd.
:arrow: mount Knoppix.iso /mnt/mountpoint-koppix -o loop -t iso9660
makes the iso readable. It would be possibel to copy -R this,
but for copying would be >2GB space nesseccary (because Knoppix
is compressed)
:?: Can Grub mount and boot a iso? How? Do you have ideas?
Or is there a way to make a preinstall hd-installation which
allow to configure for special hardware on boot-time, and save
this for next-bootings. Such a skript would be smart, that
the hd could be used as boot hd in several PCs - not only Laptops.
I hope you got my point and have an idea how to do this.

much about Knoppix to forgot which language I used ;)
