I booted my lap top from the Knoppix CD and finally found the "Install Knoppix to Flash Disk" under preferences.

I was prepared to go have lunch, run a few errands and come back and wait for the installation to finish, but to my surprise, it only took a couple of minutes and the Flash disk does boot - great!

However, I get a message to the effect that no space has been created for personal data, 200 MB minimum 14,000 MB or so free on my 16 GB Flash drive. I'm not quite sure what personal data means in relation to operating system, applications and actual data used by the applications.

Anyway, what would a recommended amount of space be to allocate for personal data?

Thanks
