Described installation was tried on Dannix (Knoppix CZ) from 3.7. 2003 Boot Knoppix CD
Run Root Console
Use "fdisk" to create two primary partitions. Larger for OS (for example /dev/hda1 as type 83 Linux) and smaller for swap (for example /dev/hda2 as type 82 Linux Swap). Don't forget to set up bootable attribute "a" to /dev/hda1.
mke2fs /dev/hda1 - initialization of the device mkdir /mnt/hda1 - creating of the mounting point mount -t ext2 /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 - mounting of the device cp -a /KNOPPIX/* /mnt/hda1 - copy of needed files cp /etc/fstab /mnt/hda1/etc - copy "fstab" file to new system location chroot /mnt/hda1 - moving to interactive shell
Modify "/etc/fstab" file:
/dev/hda2 none swap sw 0 0 /dev/hda1 / ext2 noatime 0 1 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 /dev/cdrom /cdrom auto noauto,user 0 0 /dev/fd0 /floppy auto noauto,user,umask=000 0 0
mkdir /dev/shm - create needed directory
Modify "/etc/lilo.conf" file:
lba32 boot=/dev/hda prompt delay=50 vga=normal default=DaNiX image=/vmlinuz append="lang=us apm=power-off" root=/dev/hda1 label=DaNiX read-write
lilo - write new informatin to MBR
Modify "/etc/init.d/*xsession" file. Find "USER=knoppix" and change it to "USER=root" (aproximately 5th line) Reboot Knoppix and then boot it from HDD (NOT from CD!!!)
Run Root Console
mkswap /dev/hda2 - setting up /dev/hda2 as swap device
Reboot Knoppix
The Knoppix system is now installed on your HDD and you can run it as root user.
Run Knoppix OS as a different user (not root)
Run Root Console
adduser - create new user
.
.
Modify "/etc/init.d/*xsession" file. Find "USER=root" and change it to "USER=%UserName%" (aproximately 5th line), where %UserName% is the user name of created user.
Run "visudo" to modify "/etc/sudoers". There you have to find and change "knoppix" to "%UserName%", where %UserName% is the user name of created user.
This change will allow you to run Root Console.
Reboot Knoppix.
