USB CD-RW

Hi all -

I'm trying to fix a laptop using Knoppix 3.3. I'm trying to back up her documents using an external USB CD-RW device. Is there any way Knoppix can identify and use this device?

BTW, I tried backing up her stuff by adding her to the network and starting a samba server, but for some reason Knoppix will not recognize her ethernet card.

Knoppix V3.3 is 2 years old & used the 2.4.x series kernel so it is not surprising that it might have problems with hardware such as USB drives. Knoppix V4.0.2 CD/DVD is the latest release & if possible, I would recommend using it instead of V3.3
