    --calendar <text> <height> <width> <day> <month> <year>
    --timebox <text> <height> <width>

    Special options:
    --version (prints version number to stderr and exits).
    --print-version (same as above in a cdialog-compatible way).
    --print-maxsize (prints maximum menu size in characters and exits).

    Note that <height> and <width> are in characters and may be replaced by a single
    XSIZExYSIZE[+/-XORG+/-YORG] parameter (like the one passed in the -geometry option
    of X) which will represent the size of the Xdialog window in pixels. Specifying
    a size of 0 0 (or 0x0) will auto-size Xdialog, while a size of -1 -1 (or -1x-1)
    will maximize it.

    (1) This Xdialog binary compiled with: lpr -P<printer> /tmp/Xdialog.tmp
    as the print command. If <printer> is "" (an empty string), the -P
    option is not used.
    pLEASE, PLEASE PLEASE,SOMEONE HELP ME!!!

    Install knoppix on HD

    I did this: first with third party software I created two aditional partitions and formated them first with linux ext2 file system and second with swap file system (they don't need to be primary partitions). Then I waited to knoopix fully launch and from the pinguin icon I entered the root console. I typed knoppix-installer (without sudo infront) and installation began. First I choose to install software and then choose to install knoppix (not begginers wersion) and he found, formated that partition and did ewerything and installed on HD.

    no, no

    It's also giving me this error:
    This file system has a rather strange layout. Parted can't resize them yet.
