I have recently installed Knoppix a multitude of times in the past 3 days (10 times to be precise)...

I have installed a dual boot with XP Pro.
3 partitions
1 - Linux swap
2 - Linux
3 - WinXP

i have done the apt-get update and apt-get upgrade so I htink I have the most recent stuff.

The system boots into the Xwindows or KDE whatever But Every time I boot its the same...

I have to run KNOPPIX > Network/Internet > Network card configuration
I run it for eth0 (wireless card)
choose DHCP - that fails giving error
Operation failed.
Failed.
Hit return to exit.

I hit return, then I type in a terminal window
Code:
iwconfig eth0 key xxxxxxxxxxx 
iwconfig eth0 essid "Network Name" 
pump -i eth0
and it works...

Can I save this somewhere.... I'm a bit of a noob at this...

I'm running on an Advent 7036 laptop:
Code:
CPU               Intel® Pentium® 4 2.60 GHz  
Memory            512 MB DDR SODIMM (2 x 256MB Modules)  
Hard Drive        40 GB Hitachi Travelstar  
CD / DVD Drive    HL-DT-ST DVD-RW GWA-4040N  
Video             nVidia® GeForce™ FX Go 5300  
Sound Card        Realtek AC'97 audio  
Modem             Intel® 537EA  
Network Card      Realtek 8139 / 180X (Onboard)  
Network Card      Prism® 3890 802.11g wireless
Many Thanks in advance.... I have screwed up the installation sooooo many times I thought better to ask now
