Format crashes computer at knx2hd. How do I bypass?
Hi,
I tried the hard disk installation knx2hd on Knoppix 3.4 and the computer hangs up at the formatting of the ext3 file system.
Is it possible to use another utility included on Knoppix to format?How do I skip the format in the installation process?

you can download SystemRescue live cd ( 50 mb ) from www.distrowatch.com and at boot type run_qtparted and you will be able to format your hard drive. Then install knoppix on the partitions you just made

Configure the installer, then quit (without doing anything more), and save your configuration when it asks. If you don't specify a filename/location to save your configuration, it'll default to /root/.knofig (note the leading dot). Then edit the .knofig section that looks like this:
Code:
# Determines if the HD should be formatted. (mkfs.*)
# Possible are: yes|no
# Default value is: yes
HD_FORMAT="yes"
Change the "yes" to "no" and save it. The next time you run the installer, reload your configuration file (although I think it will load it automagically if you've saved it as /root/.knofig).
