Hi folks,

Another noobe here. I'm sure this has been asked and answered before but I'm being overwhelmed with new terminology.

Before I make the partitioning and installation plunge I'd like to run the cd image for a while, but from hd for speed. When I look at my boot floppy and startup sequence I see:

Loading vmlinuz (no extension)
Loading miniroot.gz

Can I just write a batch file that points to these and then to the cd image on my hd? Then exit to DOS, run the batch file and go?


What's the difference between saving Knoppix config on the boot floppy and "persistent home"?
