I believe this is what you are looking for:

Be careful, if you are installing as a dual boot system and are not sure what you are doing, you can lose all of your data.

Good Luck!

the best way to take care of this is:

1. have a ext2 or ext3 partition (vfat is possible too although it's more complicated)
2. then make a directory called KNOPPIX on the drive
3. use cp -apR /KNOPPIX /dev/whateverdrive/KNOPPIX
4. wait some time (take a nap, whatever...)
5. use dd if=/mnt/cdrom/KNOPPIX/boot.img of=/dev/fd0
or whatever path to the boot.img file

when u want ot use knoppix, just pop the floppy in and reboot. make sure you don't have the KNOPPIX cd in, because when it searches for it, it finds cdrom first then harddrive, no matter what (unless you change miniroot.gz)

you can also change the lilo.conf file to install a boot loader (it messes mbr up because of a mistake in the settings I selected so be careful)
