Mz --

I recently installed Kanotix BH7a and noticed that the installer would only let me choose a Linux-formatted partition (i.e. ext2, ext3) to install on, but not an empty FAT32 partition. Is that what you mean -- the installer won't let you choose a FAT32-formatted partition, even if it's empty?

Jameson, mzilikazi is telling you not to mount the partition you want to install Knoppix on before you install it.
