I'm a linux noobie and I was very impressed by Knoppix. I installed today on a spare machine. First I tried with Knoppix 3.3 but kept having permission problems with partitioning (using new knoppix-installer). Next I tried Overclockix and got past partitioning but the Debian style install would not work ext3 and then I had no network after installing ext2.

Next I used HDA1- 500meg swap, hda2- the rest of my 20 gig drive ext3 with the Knoppix style install. This worked fine except I have the whole installon in one partition. I found some instructions for moving things around but did not have the motivation. I never found a good how to for setting up from the start with a good partion scheme but I realize this is a live CD project.

Next I ran apt-get update and then apt-get upgrade. (upgrade might have been overkill since it is huge and I probably don't need most of the packages, plus I'll be amazed if this doesn't break my install).

I'm about to run XF89config.

So what next? Any advice to for setting off in the right direction? I'm not above starting over again, I'm getting good at it
