• 1) Don't post the same post in multiple forums. Imagine how cluttered these forums would become if everone who wanted a response to their post stuck it in every forum. Pick a suitable forum based on the subject. If it is inappropriate in that forum a moderator will move it (or perhaps delete it, particularly if posted in multiple places). You other posts have been deleted, this one was moved to the hard disk install forum.

    2) DSL is not Knoppix, although it is based on Knoppix.

    3) Knoppix has lots of problems when installed. Has for many years. Networking failing is one of the most common on these. I don't know if that's true for DSL or not. Perhaps you should ask in a DSL forum, or simply install a distro intended for hard disk, such as Debian.
