MandrakeMove

Colin-uk · 04-29-2004, 02:01 PM

Hi all,

Thought id give Linux a try so i got a copy of MandrakeMove from my college

I got as far as "detecting USB Key devices" and then it gave me a fatal error (presumably because i didnt have a USB key device plugged in)
is there any way to run it without the key device?

thanks

Actually this post is pretty much redundant coz I dont know nething abt MandrakeMove coz I am user of Knoppix. It is really nice and it is also runs off ur CD

Cool.

does Knoppix need a 'usb key device' ?

thanks

You can download knoppix and try it out for yourself, it's free.

More info

Make sure you dl the 'en' version, if you choose the 'de' version, you'll get the whole program in german.

ps, if you're on a dial-up connection, just order the cd, it's a 700mb file, took me about 35 minutes to download it, and i'm on a adsl (2048kbps) connection.
