Download/Save files on hd
Hi everyone,
i like to try the Knoppix-cd specialy for internet-access.
I want to boot from cd and i have a small hd-partition (fat32).
Can i use a directory on the hd-partition directly as target in mozilla-
downloadmanager (after making the partition writable) or do i have to
use the ext3-file-format for my hd-partition ?
I'd like to have access to downloaded files also from my WinXP-Installation.

Anthing knoppix can write too will work. You just have to make it writable first.

How do you make your windows partition writable? Ive been having that problem myself lately. I want to download something to the windows partition but it doesnt allow me to write to it. it only lets me view and copy files. Could i just remount it with the -rw priveleges?

To make a partion writeable right-click on the icon of the partition and choose "mount" (i don't know the exact english option , because i use a german version) in the menue.
Afterwards there should be a small green triangle at the lower right corner of the icon.
then right-click again on the same icon and choose "change read/write status" or something like this.
You should get a window where you will be asked to change to writable or not.
when you are asked later, where to save a file after download,
use "/mnt/hd??/ ... /filename" (?? = see name of the chosen partition above).
When you save all your options to floppy/Harddisk after that, the Moozille-Download-Manager e.g. remembers the chosen path after the next reboot (with option myconfig=scan e.g.)
I don't know an easier way, but it works fine for me.
