also, once you do a hdd-install, the wonderful hardware detection no longer runs right? this makes my life difficult as i was going to configure a box for my dad, but he was going to keep his monitor.

anyone know how to get the hdd install to run like the CD-ROM knoppix?
As you already learned debian is not knoppix ...

You can get the "right" configuration in copying "/etc/skel" to your favorite users home dir ...

You can copy the KNOPPIX menue again from CD to your hard disk build ... /KNOPPIX/usr/share/applnk/KNOPPIX (Its jsut the menue and its gone, because sudo does not work with installed system; user should learn, he is not always "root"; make life more secure)

... mkxf86config should still work also on installed system ...

Elese, boot just once from CD-Rom and then copy Xf86config-4 from CD to HD ...

Hope that helps!
