I got the knoppix latest version. Booted with knoppix64 from DVD. uname shows
that it is using the 64 bit version. Cool. Installed to hard drive, but it installs 32 bit?
I installed it to an SSD drive which makes it very fast, but not all of the memory is
recognized.
Another thing is that version 7 doesn't allow the Browse for smb printers. Version 6
works perfectly and finds my XP host and printer. Everything is good with that.
Wireless detected perfectly in knoppix 7. How do I get rid of the exploding windows
when they close. I cannot find out how to change that. It should be an easy right?
Thanks - you guys are all great. Gals too.
Thank you so much. Could not find it!!
I tried to boot with a DVD and knoppix64 fromhd=/dev/sda. It is looking for a usb. sda is the hard drive. How would I
get it to see the hard drive. It also says my SSD is not partitioned. I thought I did that when installed it to the hard drive.
Hmmm. I think if I tried to use gpart I would lose all my data. No big deal, since I can start over if needed.
What happens if you tryWhat is the output fromCode:knoppix fromhd=/dev/sda1andCode:blkidCode:fdisk -l
Thanks Werner!

knoppix fromhd=/dev/sda2 looks for usb??
If I put knoppix64 on a usb it works. Not so much a hard drive.
Go to /boot and copy vmlinuz-3.6.11-64 into vmlinuz and it will default to the 64 bit kernel on boot.
No, it looks for a Poor man's install - no matter whether this install is on an internal harddrive, external USB drive or USB stick. You only have to know the right partition name and number at boot time.looks for usb??Code:knoppix fromhd=/dev/sda2
