 Knoppix will run as if it were from a physical CD, so you cannot install anything, unless you do a 'normal' install.

 === HOWTO copy the Knoppix file to harddisk and Boot it. ===
 The option of running Knoppix from a copy of the compressed file system has been around for years.  Contributors have suggested numerous methods for accomplishing this, and it is frequently called a "poor man's" install.  Despite the pejorative nature of this name, it can be extremely powerful in its function.

 Recently, Knoppix has undergone some changes, and some of the older methods for accomplishing this are outdated and no longer work with newer versions of Knoppix.  On the other hand, some of the newer methods do not work with older versions, so the older methods need to remain as a resource for those using older versions of Knoppix.  Be aware of this, and choose an installation method adapted to the version you are using.

 The following steps have been used with several types of Windows installations to make them dual-bootable with a KNOPPIX [[Poor Mans Install]], including Win2k and WinXP on NTFS, and Win98 and WinME on FAT32. These instructions assume that your hard drive is setup as one big partition with Windows already installed.

 ''Notes: in some cases, using the kernel option "myconfig=/dev/hda2" seems to interfere with expected persistent home directory behavior invoked by kernel option "home=/dev/hda2" - sometimes even failing to give user a persistent home directory. Just eliminating the kernel option "myconfig=/dev/hda2" seems to get the persistent home directory back. But that some installations work as expected with both kernel options suggests that possibly the timing or order in which the KNOPPIX state is saved to the configuration files is critical (i.e. before or after saving persistent home directory), or perhaps the order of kernel options is important.''
