You can dual boot now? If so you could just select XP at boot for now and when you install another Linux, use LILO to boot to it.

OR...

Just use a 98 boot floppy and use it to

C:\>fdsk /mbr

Then reboot into your XP CD and go to the repair console by hitting F10.

use the repair mbr option.

You should have your original XP boot loader back.

Then just go into XP disk manager after you've rebooted into XP and delete the partition Knoppix was on. Don't format it unless you want it to be a windows partition.

Now you're ready to put something else on that partition.
