Anyway, I don't know how to easily build a 1 or 2 floppies
minilinux with cfdisk. What's wrong with booting off the
CDrom? Then you've got a system with all possible drivers
and excellent HW detection. You know you can quickly boot to
text mode by saying "knoppix 2" at the boot prompt, don't you?
No I didn't know that , I just started the HD installation of Knoppix and deleted the Linux partitions with cFdisk. Well it works

When I boot in text mode , how do I start cFdisk? And how do I reboot / turn off the computer in text mode?
