Pendrive Universal USB Installer is a Windows program
that allows you to make LiveUSBs directly from isos.
It currently lists Knoppix V7 as one of its offerings.
You might give this a try. You'll need an 8 Gb usb to include persistence.
Caveats are:
0. If it's called 'V7' it must be a DVD-size offering (today, anyway).
1. This is not a Knopper product.
2. If this is the CeBIT Knoppix 7, it may have some errors and it's not the latest.
3. You may not have a way to verify like testcd or checksum; I don't know.
We'd be happy to hear how this works for you.
8 Gb Class 10 SDHCs are $7, sport.
Actually, I had already used qemu-kvm to create flash directly, I just forgot about it, see http://knoppix.net/forum/threads/293...or-root-device post #10. (It runs best in 64-bits system, and I haven't used that since remastering 6.7.0.
Then "Install Knoppix to flash disk" can be used in the virtual machine.Code:# lsusb Bus 002 Device 006: ID 0951:1624 Kingston Technology ..... #qemu -cdrom /store/download/iso/KNOPPIX_V6.7.0DVD-2011-08-01-EN.iso -hda /store/vm/qemu/knx670_disk.img -m 1024 -boot d -usb -usbdevice host:0951:1624 &
I think anything below 8GB (good brands cost from about $10) is rather impractical for Flash Knoppix 7.X. But masochism is of course an option
I use a Sony adapter. So long as your USB is USB-2, It'll work fine.
For your first attempt,
buy a Class 10 SDHC but don't buy a premium class jobbie unless you are into
using a video camera. And don't pay more than 1$ per Gb.
After that, treat yourself to something more expensive if you think you still want it.
Cheers.
