Knoppix isn't a "full Linux distro". It's a Live CD (or DVD). There are serious problems installing Knoppix. Always have been. Likely always will be, unless the developers make major changes. Although there is an"install script" it is plagued with problems and Klaus Knopper himself even has refered to this script as one that "works occasionally". If you want a Knoppix like installed distro, Install Debian (the distro that Knoppix is based on) and then you can easily install all of the applications included in Knoppix, or your selection of the applications that you want from Knoppix and select from many many more in the Debian application package system. This will be a much more stable and less problem prone system than Knoppix installed to hard disk.
