So you are working from the CD, and don't have Knoppix installed on your hard drive? Otherwise, the root password is whatever you set when you installed Knoppix.Quote:

Is this a spare machine that you are trying to set up to use Knoppix, or one with other systems on it, that you need to preserve?
If you can afford to "wipe" it, I'd rrecommend installing Knoppix on its hard drive; you will then have a root password and will be able to do all those things.
I would also remove one of those two network cards - they may be clashing.
