The new release of knoppix has confused me, for days i have been reformatting my computer and trying new commands to get the installation to work but all tries have failed, i have been told to use knx-hdinstall, Knoppix-Installer, and Sudo Knoppix-installer but all have not worked. It tells me the command does not exist so i need to know what command i need to use for knoppix 3.7 to install it to my hard drive. I really like knoppix and need it on my systems because it's simple to use.
Type in console exactly:
sudo knoppix-installer
I just installed 3.7, it worked. If you use upper case letters it won't work.
Why don't you click <K><KNOPPIX><ROOT SHELL>
Then, in the shell type: knoppix-installer
and follow the instructions from there. Always works for me. I've been hdinstalling KNOPPIX on about 50 PCs every time there's a new ISO for years now!
HTH,

the problem is that you're using capital letters. You have to type the command in without any capitalization at all.
foamrotreturns, you answered my VERY simple problem, i kept capitolizing knoppix. THANK YOU TONS.
No problem! Glad I could help! I was a newbie only a few months ago, and I felt your pain immediately. Be sure to look into tab-completion too. It's the greatest shortcut ever made. When you're typing in a command, get the first 3-4 letters and then hit the tab key. If it doesn't complete the rest of the filename for you, hit it again and it will give you a list of all the files/commands that start with those letters. Continue typing till you get to the point where the filename/command is unique, and then hit the tab key again and it will complete the command for you. Cool, huh?Quote:
