If the machine is not an NTFS system, the easiest way would be to do a Poormans install. Just boot the CD with 'knoppix tohd=/dev/hda1' to do the install. Boot with knoppix fromhd=/dev/hda1 tostart it. If it is an NTFS system , I think Kanotix has a 'toiso' command that will boot a straight copy of the CD iso file whcih can be copied onto the NTFS system from windows so check out kanotix. Linux can only write to NTFS systems using 'captive ntfs'.
