    What is the syntax of the boot entry?

    I still can't get Knoppix to recognize its configuration from one session to another.

    Theoretically, home=scan and config=scan should do that. But they do not.

    At the boot I enter

    knoppix home=scan; config=scan

    Is the separator a semicolon ";"? This isn't documented.

    Does anyone have an answer?

    Space makes a good separator. home and config don't always work as well as one might hope though.

    Verifying of md5 checksum and burning a CD at slow speed are important.

    knoppix myconfig=scan

    always works for me.

    Have you Configured > a persistent KNOPPIX disk image? It can even be on an NTFS like /dev/hda1/ or could be /dev/sda1/ -- a USB drive.
