- Is Knoppix running from bootable CD using HD space at all?
- Posted by Amir on December 10th, 2003
I'm new to Linux and Knoppix. Knoppix from bootable CD works for me, as far
as I can tell. DSL connection, browser and mail client -- no problems.
I just wonder -- is Knoppix using any hard disk space? Like saved setups,
data, etc. It can't be on CD, since it's running from CD-R.

Great, newsreader seems to be the culprit.
No it isn't, that's the purpose of Knoppix.

Knoppix will happily run just from CD and RAM without touching the
harddrive. If you want¸ you can save your knoppix configuration to the
harddrive, by clicking on the admin-menu and selecting save-config or
something like that.
I have a 128MB USB "thumb" drive, that I save the knoppix config to.
Works well, and I can use a clients machine without bothering the
(presumably broken) MS-Windows installation.
