Need help with saving configurations

I think youve been looking at the tips for an older version. First, you have to have a writable medium - usually a flash drive/sdcard these days, though I like my hard drive pseudo-installs. Try clicking Preferences-Install Knoppix to flash disk and then boot from that medium; you'll be prompted to create a "persistent image", which will do what you want.

when that prompt comes up I typed 3000mb and hit enter, but that message comes up everytime i boot from my thumb drive. How do i make it stay? am i trying to designate too much space? btw my thumbdrive is 4gb. thanks for any help!

Try typing just "3000" - that seems to be the key. There was a rather in-depth thread on the subject of modifying the script that handles that a while back, if you want to look at the innards.
