I feel kind of stupid asking this, is there an English version of Knoppix? Or is there some way of enbling the English language? Thanks in advance.

Go check out the files you can download, the latest version (in English) is called KNOPPIX_V3.2-2003-07-26-EN.iso - the EN is the give away here, as opposed to DE for Deutsch!

Yeah, that is a bit of a givaway. Thanks for the quick reply.

Try the cheat code lang=us to get an English language boot from the German version.

Now if you want to avoid downloading a full ISO, I think you can use the lang cheatcode
At the knoppix CD boot prompt, press F2 and you'll see the most important codes documented
I guess you can try "knoppix lang=us"
Also, all mirrors should have the knoppix-customize directory, where a tool is available which
allows you to patch the ISO image before burning it, eg for changing the default language...
