There are two basic variations for installing Knoppix on a hard drive:

1. Installing Knoppix as the only operating system on a single hard drive system is simple:

  - boot Knoppix from CD/DVD
  - read the help file that appears
  - open a root terminal - hit enter when asked for password
  - run knoppix-installer

2. Installing Knoppix as one operating system on a multiple partition and/or multiple drive system.

  - install any operating systems requiring primary partitions first
  - reboot with Knoppix from CD/DVD
  - read the help file that appears
  - open the root terminal - hit enter when asked for password
  - run knoppix-installer
  - choose option 1 then option 3 to partition before installing
  - choose primary partition for grub if this is the only linux 
  - choose boot partition of second or subsequent multiple OS install
