Depends on the partition type. NTFS: NO, FAT Yes. Knoppix defaults to opening partitions read only (a safety issue considering one of the target users for Knoppix is new Linux users), but you can change the mount to R/W with the mount command or by right clicking on the partition icon and using the actions sub-menu. But don't even think of doing this if you have NTFS partitions or are not sure what type(s) of partition you have.
