1. open up a shell
2. type 'su' (no quotes)
3. type 'knoppix-installer' (no quotes)
4. follow the prompts. be prepared to make a couple choices.
5. enjoy knoppix on your HD.

(step 3 can be replaced by 'knx-install' if you like)


alternatively:
1) read the 8 gajillion other posts asking about the same thing, and follow the advice given.

[/dash]

open a konsole
type sudo qtparted (the easiest one)
make the partitions (resize one if needed, that is if you dont want to delete your windosw partition)
save changes before leaving
on konsole type sudo knx-hdinstall
when it gets u the partitioning thing just quit it
continue with install

hope this helps. if you have any more questions....
