the partition has already been made and has been formatted as ext3Originally Posted by kevstar31
knoppix appers only to work with ext2
you also need to run as root

Aw is that all :P (i was never aware ext3 not compatible wit knoppix)
thankx man ill try that out later
Wrong, Koppix fully supports ext3.
Truthfully I like useing -a to let mount find the part type.
But, why are you useing the consol?
Im just doing what people are telling me to do:\Originally Posted by firebyrd10
I just want to get a linux partition made and formatted ready to put software on such as firefox.
Some 1 want to give me proper instuctions on how to do this?
all this crap its driveing me nutts!
I'm confused and don't really understand the question.
I'm guessing that you create an extra partition (ext3) not the one for installing knoppix, and you want to write to that partition.
If that the case, let do some test.
1) check /etc/fstab and see if that partition is included.
Which partition? Do a fdisk -l in konsole and you will see all the partition. See if the dev for your ext3 is in fstab. If not, then put it in.
ex: if that partition is /dev/hda3
/dev/hda3 /mnt/hda3 ext3 noauto,users,exec,umask=000,quiet 0 0
You can change noauto to auto if you want it to mount without your intervention.
Then reboot.
2) Lets try mounting and write something
Open konsole:
su
enter password
mount /dev/hda3 /mnt/hda3
cd /mnt/hda3
mkdir test
ls
see if directory test is there.
If success, you might want to consider adding Run as SU service menu to your konquerer. It wiil make it easier for you to switch to between user and su.

The important thing is, you need to be root so that you can write to that partition. Unless you install as Knoppix style which you need to enable write previlage after you mount that partition.
Good luck.

Question #1: Are you trying to install Knoppix to the HD? If so, it is not necessary to have a pre-formatted drive, the installer will format for you (using qtparted). Just 'sudo knoppix-installer' and the install procedure will format whatever drive you specify for you. Post back if it doesn't.
Question #2: Do you have knoppix installed to HD and are trying to add applications in a different partition? If so, why? Applications are normally installed into the same partition as the operating system is on by using dpkg, apt-get, kpackage or synaptic package managers. The only directory you might want to put on a different partition is /home so that your data is protected in case of a total system crash.
Question #3: Or are you trying to run Knoppix from CD but run applications which are installed on the HD? If so, this is done by creating a persistent home (and a saved configuration) on the HD then installing applications using 'klik'. Create the persistent home & save configuration using the links on the "Knoppix" menu item.
Please explain what exactly you are trying to accomplish.
Also please post the output from
fdisk -l
cat /etc/fstab
cat /etc/mtab
so we will know exactly what partitions & setup you have now.
