I know there is supposedly a way you can extract the Knoppix disk and run it from a hdd, but no where can I find a useful resource explaining actually how to do this. It should in effect workfrom an NTFS drive as well so that I can dump stuff via network onto the machine from my windows environment and then jump over to work from the Knoppix box as well. A little bit OT, but I know this is supposedly something that Vector Linux should be able to do as well and I still have not figured out how to. Greatful for any information on this very useful productivity topic.
