Surely you must have been expecting this! The second post in the HDD install forum almost 3 years ago was about this very symptom, Internet access working fine from the CD but failing after a hard disk install, and it's been happening ever since. Things like this are why I decided to install Debian rather than Knoppix, since Debian is intended for install on a hard disk and Knoppix is intended as a live CD. Why did you decide to install Knoppix to a hard disk?
