A few problems I am running into. I need some answers. Thank you! CLAM-AV and ???'s
#1 problem: ISP service = Cricket Wireless Physical Connection to the internet = Cellular air card
The above stated I cannot get my Knoppix online UNLESS I am booted into windows, and using internet connection sharing to my NIC. I boot up Qemu and run knoppix from it. Voila I can get online.
SO HERE IS MY QUESTIONS AND PROBLEMS.
Q1. While booted into windows, and using the accompanied qemu to virtualize my knoppix. Can I mount to the hard drive that windows is running off of ? I could not locate it it what so ever.
Q2. If I cannot mount to the windows hard drive while booted as stated above. I am able to locate my 8GB USB flash drive which I mounted my Live-DVD knoppix onto, but when I try to mount to it to possibly save files to it. I get the message it's read only.
Q3. If I download such programs I want within windows and save them to my USB flash drive which has my mounted knoppix distro, and I simply download them to the drive. Will I be able to access them once booted within knoppix?
I am attacking Knoppix hands on for 10+ hours a day, and am still going strong so please if anyone can help with this information it would really help. I am absolute linux\knoppix novice, but am trying to peice together my understanding fast as possible.
Thank you,
Cody Oebel

I'll try to give an answer to your first question.
I presume that you know how to create a shared folder called "Downloads" on your Windows machine. You must know the IP address of your Windows system (e. g. 192.168.0.1). I also assume that your user name is "cody" with the password "mypwd" and the system is a member of the workgroup "MYGROUP". Then you can open a terminal inside your virtual machine running Knoppix and issue the following commands
Code:
sudo mkdir /media/windowsbox
sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.0.1/Downloads /media/windowsbox -o user="MYGROUP/cody%mypwd",uid=1000,gid=1000
You should be able to access the shared folder on your windows machine under /media/windowsbox.
You can unmount the shared folder with the command
Code:
sudo umount /media/windowsbox
