Just a couple of ideas: Grub allow you to use a password, the default boot (time out and enter key) can still be that it will boot windows from both bootloaders: xp and grub, so you will need to select knoppix on both bootloaders menus... You can also use a USB dongle instead of a floppy to only load knoppix when the USB dongle is connected... Cheers, Gilles
