Look and ye shall find!

If you had looked through the previous posts, you would have found that "abittner" had thoughtfully provided the links to BOTH the HTTP and the FTP source for the ISO image. Here they are again:

http://ftp.freenet.de/pub/filepilot/...005-DVD-DE.ISO
http://ftp.freenet.de/pub/filepilot/...ystem/knoppix/

ftp://ftp.freenet.de/pub/filepilot/l...005-DVD-DE.ISO
ftp://ftp.freenet.de/pub/filepilot/l...ystem/knoppix/

I don't know how fast they might download, but it appears that the files are still available at both the HTTP and FTP links.

Are there any regular CD-ROM ISO's available for 4.0 yet? I'm trying to revive a crashed XP system and only have access to a CD burner at this time.

Thanks!

minirt_ntfs.gz for ntfs Knoppix 4.0 HD boot with grldr/grub

Hello,
I just posted the new minirt_ntfs.gz required to boot Knoppix 4.0
from the ISO DVD being in a NTFS (XP) partition of the HD using grldr (grub).

dont know if this has been asked before or not. but is there any word on an english version???

and if i boot up with the english cheatcode, then save my settings. will it remember to boot in english when i type the myconfig=/mnt/hdc5 command?

English Version

In response to the question about an English version posted by litdie:

There is a remastered Non-Official version available on Torrent with QEMU 0.7.0 to enable Autorun under Windows. It appears to work rather well and I do appreciate the eforts to provide this. I spent a few hours working with it and it appears to be about the same as the DE Version booted up with the "Knoppix Lang=US" cheatcode. I'm hooked! It serves well as an interim "Knoppix 4.0 Fix" for this "Knoppix-holic".

There are at least two locations available and it is a long but stable download. It took a half hour or so for the download to ramp up to speed, but it completed in about 12 hours or so from the Mininova link. Both links should work about the same.

The completed DVD will most probably fail the "TestCD" cheatcode upon bootup. The disk has been remastered and modified from it's original format and may show a few errors in that regard.

Look for them Here:

Hope this helps!

First, if you use the "lang=us keyboard=us" cheatcodes, it boots into US English just fine. (When 4.0 "official" comes out, there will be an English version, where you don't have to type those cheatcodes, of course.)

Second, AFAIK, no, you still have to issue the "lang=us keyboard=us" cheatcodes even with a saved config.

Thanks for the info re. saved configs keeping the language setting.

Are you running Knoppix on an LCD monitor (e.g. a laptop)? Do a search in the Laptop section of this board for the term "LCD" and you'll see several posts about that issue.

If they used the split command, then appropriate way to put it all back together is to use cat.
cat first.iso second.iso third.iso fourth.iso fifth.iso sixth.iso seventh.iso eighth.iso > KNOPPIX_V4.0-2005-06-08-LINUXTAG2005-DVD-DE.iso

Hi Gilles,

is unionfs working reliably in Knoppix 4.0? i.e. with a cheat such as "unionrw" or by mounting a unionfs image file, is one able to update/upgrade/install .debs?

Thanks in advance?

Just wondering why it's taking so long to release official 4.0 iso's. Thanks for any info!

Practically all of us here are not Knoppix developers or beta testers, but are just community volunteers. There is no way any of us non-developers can give you more information than what is listed at http://knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html. Some of the developers do visit these forums but you can contact the Knoppix developers at their mailing list at http://sympa.linuxtag.net/wws.

Well I'd prefer the full version now that one is available.

Nice way to break in my NEC DVD burner on something worth the disk. :mrgreen:

I'm downloading 4.0 via bittorrent and it's very active compared to Libranet which is taking two weeks LOL.

I'll leave it up to seed for a few weeks or until the EN version comes out.

Word to the wise: Don't put this file on a FAT32 partition or you will loose it. FAT32 only supports 4GB max.

Still waiting on the CD version....

Hosting CD-sized files for free with decent speed is hard enough for remasterizers. Some of us don't have DVD burners either.... :(

Yeah, the CD version

My thinking is that if Mr. Knopper moves off of the CD all the developer stuff, as I read that he would, thus leaving more room for end-user apps, then the CD will have significantly more room for applications I might use or need.

The old CD was already pretty complete. Anything missing from the new one, I would be happy to just apt-get. I'm thinking it could not be much that I'd need.

The previous poster brings up an interesting problem: FAT32's 4GB limitations. That's what I use. Hmm. A new wrinkle.

Hello,
Even inside the iso, there is 2 KNOPPIX loop back files joined together with the union file system. This due to a 2GB limit of the iso file system. One way to solve this could be to post these 2 files plus all the other boot files so each individual file is lower than 2gb and use mkisofs | (pipe into) cdrecord (using cygwin) to burn the dvd. Basically you create and burn the iso on the fly without having the temp big iso file on the disk. To replace the boot from the iso being on the hd (what we call the PMI, poor man install), we could probably do it quite easily (will need to modify the linuxrc if not already working) to boot from these two 2GB KNOPPIX & KNOPIX2 loop back files instead of the iso. Duable ...

Gilles

Excellent, 4.7 MB/s! :-) Total download should be done in about 15 minutes.

You can get the NEC dual layer DVD burner for just a bit more than $40 at newegg.

I think for these bad boys, Bit Torrent will be the only practical method for the patient ones among us.

for those with fat 32 use an existing knoppix release to boot up and use qtparted to resize ur fat32 partition and create a ntfs partition large enough to hold ur download till u burn it.
08-06-2005, 08:02 PM

If eye were u, I would use reiserfs, for example, so that the partition would be good for something when you're running linux.

err, so the Windows solution would be?:

Code:

(Open command line) >copy first.iso+second.iso+third.iso+fourth.iso+fifth.iso+sixth.iso+seventh.iso+eighth.iso KNOPPIX_V4.0-2005-06-08-LINUXTAG2005-DVD-DE.iso

Probably yes. Use md5sum to guarantee that it puts it back together perfectly.

Perhaps use /b for binary so the file isn't treated as ascii:
copy /b first.iso + second.iso + third.iso + fourth.iso + fifth.iso + sixth.iso + seventh.iso + eighth.iso KNOPPIX_V4.0-2005-06-08-LINUXTAG2005-DVD-DE.iso
