Tried your commands but when I go to input the 2nd command it gives me a error saying that there is no arument or something, tried typing it in exactly but I can't figure it out.

Also I saved the knoppix configuration to floppy, but I don't know how to get it from the floppy to the hard drive from the command line... I thought I knew but it doesn't seem to work.

Thanx again, but I"m unfortunately still hitting a brick wall.
