Hi. Respectfully asking (read: begging for some assistance doing a hd install of Knoppix 3.3 from image dated 2-16. After running from the CD for a few days have made decision knoppix is the distro for this newbie, anyway and have spent 24 hrs (yeah straight, pump that caffeine into a fresh vein, please trying to do hd install. I run konsole and type sudo knoppix-installer. It brings me to qparted where I successfully created two partitions for it, one formatted linuxswap of 500 mb and one in ext3 of 5gig. That's as a far as it is going. The partitions are really set/formatted and I have rebooted (old habits die hard) but knoppix-installer kept saying hd was not properly prepared and bringing me to qparted again. And I tried IGNORE_CHECK=1 sudo knoppix installer and got the config options but then it dumps what appears to be an error about a radio button missing in the installer? I have also tried running from ctrl-alt-F1. Googling and faqing it appears something might be missing from this distribution? I dled another installer (a deb) with templates but am unable dpkg and install that installer to ramdrive maybe without root password. Suggestions most appreciated and pardon this sleep-deprived linux newbie's drawn out post. Regards, Nish
