knoppix single? What happened to Knoppix 2?
If you want login as root and not as the default knoppix user there is a way.
At boot time type
knoppix single
you will login in text mode then
root@tty[/]# startx
to start kde
That is all. Now you are full root.
No more need for sudo.
knoppix easier than ever. :P

use knoppix single 1 2 3 or 4
an alternative is getting a password with
root@tty[/]# passwd
an then
root@tty[/]# kdm
this way you will login with the usual wallpaper and the girl voice
I've tried booting with "knoppix single" start x, etc. I also made myself a root@tty login with a password, but I still cannot alter, move, or delete, or change permissions on any file from my old windows system. :cry:
Hard drive partitions are mounted read-only as a precaution, to mount a drive as read-write :Originally Posted by benmayim
for hda1.Code:mount -o remount,rw /mnt/hda1
--Just so you know, running everything as root is a **huge** security hole and can be quite dangerous to all mounted filesystems if an ' rm ' command goes wrong. But for a live-cd with everything mounted read-only by default, it's not that critical.
--Incidentally this is a good way to save memory, since you have only 1 tty terminal. If you boot with another desktop (icewm, et al) it will save even more resources.
