back from a big sleep, 6.30am sydney

if eveybody did a bit, that would be great. the big question to start with is what will be included in the book. newbies want to know certain things to get started, with all due respect, they dont need to know about networking to begin with. if they are at the networking stage they can come to the forum and ask.

suggested chapter

how to get knoppix to run on you pc
- system requirements (already done)
- setting the bios to boot from cd
- overcomming hardware conflicts
- setting up a swap file in text mode to run k desktop when you dont have enough ram

thats for starters, there would be a lot more of course but it has to have a lot of screenshots and easy to follow instructions that explain things very simply.

i know there is already info on this stuff but unless you already know a bit about linux, its hard to follow to begin with. it needs to step-by-step stuff

i noticed someone has attempted to start a condenced how to in the documentation section but it hasnt really gotten anywhere. maybe that has some potential for a starting point.

i think it would be good if anybody who contributed to the manual has their name included with their work. have to say thanks some how, eh?
