Basic Linux Question and how it works in Knoppix?
Please keep in mind that I am fairly new to Knoppix (linux in general knowledge of two weeks).
Question #1: In Windows, most program are stored in C:\Program Files\DIRECTORY of APP (applications that follows standards). WHAT is the equivalent for Knoppix and Linux in general?
Question #2:
(A) Is there any way I can maintain the apps I install in Knoppix to be available everytime I reboot with CD without having to reinstall?
(B) Basically, can my application that I install always be available using persistent home?
(C) Do I have to manually to tell it to save to a certain location?
(D) Where is that location (examples if possible please).
Brief and comprehensive responses welcome...not too brief though that I say - HUHHHHH???
Thank you everyone for your support and patience...I am almost free from XP.

open a command prompt type this:
mc <enter>
This is the midnight commander - it is your friend-it works from the command line OR a terminal window-it is included in many Linux distros. It is very easy to use. Learn it- it just takes some playing with and you'll get it. It can display different sorts of files in different colors. The executable programs are not necessarily listed with a name that explains their function. But to answer your question - many are stored in /bin & /usr/bin.

Not sure exactly what you are asking here but you can install Knopppix to a hard drive
you can save customizations for the live cd on a floppy
you can create your own custom cd with whatever you want more or less.
As for the rest of your questions - go read the documentation on the knoppix website. It's all there just search.
