podo,

By your own statement you are still very new to this, and you are not doing a lot with you Knoppix install. You may very well find that when you do try to do more you will hit some of the problems that we warn about, problems that are well known to affect prople who make the choice to force Knoppix onto a hard disk.

You have not made any statement about trying to install a version of Linux, such as Debian, actually intended for hard disk install. So can we conclude that you are giving the advice to install Knoppix without even trying a real Linux install? Or do you have some benefit that you believe comes from installing Knoppix that isn't acheived by a real Linux install? If you you do I wish you would share it with us.

Congratulations on having a Knoppix install that you are happy with, at least for now. But this is hardly a good reason to advise others to foillow your path when Debian and other intended for hard disk versions of Linux can be installed cleanly and will gain them all of the benefits of Knoppix without the known problems.
