Re: Can I install Knoppix Live DVD to my HDD without blowing up my other five multiboot systems?

Hello all,

As some of you know, I have a multiboot AMD system, presently consisting of
Ubuntu Linux, Windows ME, and three Windows 2000 systems, all happily
coexisting on two 60 GB HDDs. I even have plenty of spare HDD space.

I just got the current Knoppix Live DVD (hundreds of apps). I played with it
enough to know that I would like to install it and play with it more
seriously. (Retirees do this kind of stuff.)

Any general or specific thoughts on how to do this, or if I can do it?

TIA,
Walterius

I'm assuming that if you start an install it will ask where you want it to
go. I'm also assuming that it will ask before writing the MBR. So my
response would be that yes, it's most likely going to work. Perchance the
Knoppix web site would give a little more info. BTW I retired two years
ago. I'm currently doing consulting and web page development for
non-profits - see www.rcarter.net.
