Modem install ?

[DavidTempler]

Is it possible to run a Modem just using Knoppix 3.2 CD?

Will I have to do a full HD install in order to use my modem?

Is it possible to install driver to make my modem work?

Well Dave,
the answer is definitely YES provided your modem is a standard modem i.e. it relies on standard AT&T set of commands and this is the case of almost every external modem I guess.
Things are a little more difficult if you have a non standard (winmodem) modemcard installed for which there are workarounds (and drivers)
You can visit the relevant posts on the Hardware section as well as the linuxant page herebelow

Hope this helps
