you boot from CD right? press F2 when the boot: appears. there you have a bunch of cheatcodes.
on line2 from top in the wite window that appears you find desktop=icewm.
so typing :
boot:knoppix desktop=icewm should give you icewm
the = sign may be on a different place than normal, no panic just try aroun some.
btw the font on buttons in icewm is terrible on my screen, looks like hindi or soething.

You're right, I boot from the CD for the time being. I'm trying to get used to the OS before I attempt to install to a hard drive. What can I say, I'm parranoid about reloading my HDD. But, I have some lesser systems I play around with vis-a-vis OSes. So, I'll just have to check out the cheatcodes you passed along and have a crack at it.

Thanks!
