I guess with the flash-style install, it's entirely self-contained, unlike the HD-style install.

OK, I tried the Flash install and did not notice the weird latency that shows up with LXDE or KDE when I do an "HD install" option - sometimes 10s of seconds elapse when the system is completely unresponsive to mouseclicks. Is this a known issue with HD install? Has anyone figured a workaround. I really prefer a non-Flash type install, but I guess it's not workable in Knoppix. I tried Kubuntu since it's also Debian, but it doesn't do anywhere near the hardware detection that Knoppix does. Is there another thread on this forum that discusses this (I can't seem to find it)?
