Is there any tools for scanning disk in Knoppix?

Thanks!

You might try man fsck - for the File System ChecKing utility...

Not sure if your question was "Windows" related, or Knoppix? But Linux uses fsck for all of its file / disk checking. Within Knoppix, the fsck utility can check, and repair, ext2 and ext3 file systems, not sure about NTFS, Reiser, etc...

Hope this helps,
