Easiest way: do a 'poorman's install' of the stock Knoppix from the CD then replace the 'KNOPPIX' file in the poorman's with your customized 'KNOPPIX' file.
Hi guys
I'd like to test my customized Knoppix without burning it .
How can I do it?
I've just read that I've to make a boot floppy with:
dd if=boot.img of=/dev/floppy
but I'm using Knoppix 3.6 and I've not the file boot.img.
How can I make this boot floppy?
thank you very much

Easiest way: do a 'poorman's install' of the stock Knoppix from the CD then replace the 'KNOPPIX' file in the poorman's with your customized 'KNOPPIX' file.
Let's say your new image is new-knoppix.isoI'd like to test my customized Knoppix without burning it .Look through /test-new to make sure everything is there and in the right place.
- # mkdir /test-new
# mount -t iso9660 -o ro,loop new-knoppix.iso /test-newYou can also do a test run with your burner. For example,
- # umount /test-new
using your own dev= (which you can find with # cdrecord -scanbus). The -v option tells it to be verbose (describe what it's doing) and -dummy says to not turn on the laser.
- # cdrecord -v -dummy dev=0,0,0 new-knoppix.iso
If you get buffer underrun errors, you can try again with a slower speed or with the burnfree option set, if it's available in your burner and drive.Enjoy!
- # cdrecord -v -dummy -driveropts=burnfree speed=8 dev=0,0,0 new-knoppix.iso

Thank you very much
I'll try a poorman's install.
I didn't think to this simple solution
The simplest solution is the best too.
Then I'll try "cdrecord -v -dummy..." before burning it.
Thank you both very much
