thank-you...so only that file....ok thanks!
the file with same date ending in md5 might be good to check if the download was good. not necesary though.
here is more info about the downloading... if you wish (qouote above from there) http://www.knoppix.net/docs/index.php/FaqDownloadingQuote:
The files with the .md5 extension contain checksums for the actual CD httpISO images. A checksum is a "matching number" for checking files. One can verify that the file matches its original down to the smallest detail. When you download both the ISO image for the CD and its corresponding .md5 file, you can verify that your download was complete and that the contents are unchanged by typing "md5sum -c filename.md5" under Linux/Unix.
Further information about MD5 and programs for various OS's can be found at httphttp://www.linuxiso.org/viewdoc.php/verifyiso.html and httphttp://www.fourmilab.ch/md5/. You can download a Windows(TM,) version at httphttp://www.toast442.org/md5gui.shtml.
lots more info here about many things in knoppix.

EDIT actually you will find things here that are good to know about both gnu and linux (linux is only the kernel gnu is most of the programmes) /EDIT
