You guys may be right, but Knopper has said the next version will have an improved installer. Why would an installer be included, and why would a better installer be planned by a man who has no intention of anyone ever installling Knoppix? This is not a flame, I want an answer, please. On the surface, it seems you guys made a personal decision that it is better not to install, this sort of decision is usually made by those who have had problems with it, and are operating on that premise. See discussion on main forum that maybe this Install forum should be deleted.

The real reason to try Kanotix is only partially that it is better to install. The real reason not to put any time into Knoppix is because you will not get any real help on the Knoppix.net but you will get help on Kanotix forum, in fact Kano himself answers many posts when he has time.

In my opinion, if Knoppix cannot be installed after being tried, than Knoppix should be cancelled. It doesn't do anything other live cd's don't do as well, and they can be installed. In any case, people should be discouraged from downloading it, when they can get other live distros which one can get help to install.
