I tried the first option of a debian type install and I received the error message;
"...check DCOP service is running"-when KDE tried to start up.
What is this DCOP and how do I get around the error?

I have now installed with option 2-a knoppix install;
This works but I only have the option of KDE.
I read that with this install options/settings would not be saved on reboot-but they are-so I am a bit confused there??

What about option 3-a beginner install-does that give all options?
