Knoppix Questions

[Brett I. Holcomb]

Well, I'm not sure.  I can mount a floppy.  Let me restate the problem in a 
clearer way.

Knoppix won't let me modify /etc/hosts - tells me it can't modify linked 
files and it won't let me do a modprobe dpt_i2o even though the module is 
there - it tells me operartion not permitted.  

I installed the dpt_i2o module using the expert boot mode of Knoppix and 
feeding it a floppy.  That got my RAID accessible and I can mount it.

I guess the issue is"

1.  Knoppix has the system locked up somehow so that I can't add modules 
via modprobe and I can't edit files.  At this point I don't expect them to 
stay across boots - they have a way to do that but I haven't looked into 
it.  How do I unlock it so I can modify some of this stuff.

At least at this point I have networking configured so I can reach the 
Gentoo servers and am getting my files.  

It looks like learning Knoppix and how to save across boots will be a 
future project!  For now I just want to be able to modify files and add 
modules.
