Well I followed the hard drive install, and it went for the most part as expected, (Libranet being my only other debian install experience).

What I found unusual, is after the initial boot to kde and the language conversion, I then needed to run ppp0econf to connect my adsl modem, this I found could only be done as root, my sound only worked as root, and my printer only configured as root, but no provision was made to log me in as regular user, only a knoppix user. Nothing of course worked as a knoppix user, and my windows partition was not set up or recognized on install, not even grub picked it up.

Now I am familiar with setting this all up, it's just that I was not prepared to spend so much time doing things that should have been looked after on install. Or at the very least given the opportunity to configure during the install process. The install is the weakest link.

To make a long storey short, it feels and drives nice, but needs far too much manual adjustment for basic things after install.

It works much better as it's intended use, a demo disc. I had no trouble configuring anything.

Nice job so far I'll keep an eye for updates.
