Welcome to the [[Knoppix]] wiki.  This wiki and other features found on http://www.knoppix.net are all about [[Knoppix]].  http://www.knoppix.net is a resource for users, developers, and testers of [[Knoppix]]. The official website for [[Knoppix]] is on Klaus Knopper's website, at http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html.
 
 
[[Knoppix]] is a Free and Open Source [[LiveCD |Live Linux CD]] based on Debian [[GNU]]/[[Linux]].  [[LiveCD |Live Linux CD]] means that the commuter [[Booting|boots]] and runs completely from cd. Nothing is installed on your hard drive in order for you to experience many of the Open Source software packages available. [[Knoppix]] includes recent [[Linux]] software and desktop environments, including such applications as OpenOffice.org, Abiword, Gimp, Konqueror, Firefox, Apache, PHP, MySQL and hundreds of other quality open source programs.  http://www.knoppix.net allows you to look at the FAQ's and Documentation, participate in discussions on the forums, or just burn a copy of it and try it out! - You can download it ( CD or DVD size ISO files ) or buy it from a CD distributor, more info on the download / buy page at http://www.knoppix.net/get.php.
 
 
The documentation found here is orgranized in several sections.  The goal is to take you from the very beginning as you learn how to use [[Knoppix]] all the way to advanced applications of the [[LiveCD |Live Linux CD]].
 
 
; [[Downloading FAQ | Download]] : A handy one-stop source of information about downloading, verifying, burning and booting a Knoppix CD or DVD is this wiki's [[Downloading FAQ]]. If you do not wish to download and burn your own copy there are others who will sell you a copy of Knoppix that you can find at the official Knoppix vendor site http://knopper.net/knoppix-vendors/index-en.php
 
 
; [[:Category : FAQ Page | FAQ]] :  There are various [[:Category : FAQ Page | Frequently Asked Question]] pages available.
 
 
; [[:Category: Bug Pages | Bug report pages]] : If you have found a bug in Knoppix, you can report it on the Bug tracking site.  However, some users have developed [[:Category: Bug Pages | bug report pages]] on this wiki that include work arounds to some of the problems with each release of [[Knoppix]].
 
 
; [[Quick Index | Organized Content]] : As the wiki develops more of the content will be organized.  Here's some sample pages that may help you get going with the wiki ---- [[:Category: Cheat Codes | Cheat Codes]] ---- [[:Category : FAQ Page | FAQ]] ---- [[:Category: Useful Linux Commands|Useful Linux Commands]] ---- [[:Category: Useful knoppix Commands|Useful Knoppix Commands]] ---- [[:Category: Bug Pages | Bug report pages]] ---- [[:Category: Page stubs | Page stubs that could use additional content]] ---- [[Quick Index]] ---- Any ideas would be welcomed.  How are you looking for information relating to [[knoppix]]? <!-- Note the syntax here. Please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Wikipedia:Wikiportal/Geography/Categories as an example -->
 
 
; [[Customizing FAQ | Customizing]] : After you have experimented with [[Knoppix]] for awhile you may want to customize it.  Customizing may be as simple as using the [[:Category: Cheat Codes | Cheat Codes]] while [[booting]] the [[Knoppix]] CD.  You may want to look at the [[Customizing FAQ]] or at some of the [[Knoppix Customisations | specialized Knoppix based Linux distributions]].
 
 
; [[:Category: Remastering Knoppix | Knoppix Remastering]] :  If [[Customizing FAQ | customizing]] isn't meeting your needs, then there's information on [[Knoppix Remastering Howto | how to remaster Knoppix]].  Yes, remastering is one of the beautiful facts of Open Source software: You can take the software and remold it to how you see fit.  There are translations available of the [[Knoppix Remastering Howto]] ---- [[Knoppix Remastering Howto Deutsch|Deutsch]] ---- [[Knoppix Remastering Howto French|French]] ---- [[Knoppix Remastering Howto Spanish|en español]] ---- [[Knoppix Remastering Howto Russian|Russian]] ---- [[Knoppix Remastering Howto Indonesian|Indonesian]].
 
 
; [[:Category: Hard drive Installation | Hard drive Installation]] : The main strength of [[Knoppix]] is its ability to be run from memory as a [[LiveCD |Live Linux CD]].  The advantage to this is that you can take the CD with you.  However, some users have worked out how to install [[Knoppix]] on a hard drive.  If you have an old small hard drive, a large hard drive, or any other drive than a CD Rom drive that [[Knoppix]] was originally intended for, then you may want to look at some of these [[:Category: Hard drive Installation | Hard drive Installation]] pages.

'''IMPORTANT NOTE:''' You are welcome to edit this wiki, but to prevent spam we've turned off automatic account creation. If you aren't already registered you need to first email

Currently, the theme and plan of the wiki will take a novice user from the beginning all the way to advanced topics.  Sections of the wiki will show you how to obtain, verify, burn the ISO file to a CD-R and finally how to boot Knoppix. Other sections will help a user become aquainted with the GUI interface that Knoppix provides.  Moreover, some of the power of the command prompt and shell scripting languages will be provided.  These topics may help you prepare for remastering Knoppix to meet your needs.  Though Knoppix was designed to run from a CD-ROM drive, hard drive installations are possible.
+
 
+
There's a [[Quick Index]] page so that you can find pages easier while the wiki is in transition.  The following two sections may help you find what you are looking for right away.  The final sections on this page are conversion status pages.  However, they are full of useful information now even though the conversion team has not had the chance to organize the content. If you'd like to help with the conversion, please sign up for an account and dig in.  The [[Current events]] page has a list of all the pages that still need additional work.
