Dear Group, i'm new to Linux so forgive me if this is a fooloish question. I have done a "Poor Mans Install" with Knoppix 3.6 and set up a "Persistent Home" Everytime i change the background or how something looks or behaves i save the config file to /mnt/hda1 and it works fine, next time i start up my settings are remembered.

I downloaded a program from Klik and tried to save the config files and a box appeared saying that Knoppix couldn;'t save my settings. I deleted the download and got another one but the message was the same. It then occured to me that maybe i can't save programs with a "Poor Mans Install" Is that the case chaps, and if not, any idea where i'm going wrong?

Many Thanks
