KNOPPIX is a bootable Live system on CD, DVD or USB flash drives. It consists of a representative collection of GNU/Linux software, automatic hardware detection. Also, it supports for many graphics cards, sound cards, SCSI and USB devices, and other peripherals.KNOPPIX can be used as a productive Linux system for the desktop, educational CD, rescue system, or adapted and used as a platform for commercial software product demos.KNOPPIX automatically detects and supports a wide range of graphics adapters, sound cards, USB devices, and other peripheral devices.It is not necessary to install anything on a fixed disk. Because of its transparent decompression, up to 2 gigabytes of executable software can be present on a CD, and up to 10GB on a single-layered DVD.Because of its transparent decompression, up to 2 gigabytes of executable software can be present on a CD, and up to 10 GB on a single-layered DVD. (Audio Desktop Reference Implementation And Networking Environment) is a talking menu system, which is supposed to make work and internet access easier for computer beginners, even if they have no sight contact to the computers monitor.A graphical environment with also talking programs and arbitrary magnification using Compiz-fusion is another option.

I was talking with Klaus Knopper yesterday. I was given the ISO for the5.0.1 DVD and permission to list it in our catalog.This is a Win-Win situation for the Knoppix Project and Knoppix fans.Win for users. They will be booting up while others are cramming thedownload mirrors.
Ship time for US addresses is about 3 days(International 7 or so). Business process modeling example. When they order a disc today, and it will bein their mail box Friday when the ISO goes public.Win for Knoppix. Because the disc is coming from On-Disk.com, KlausKnopper will get funds for the project for every disc we ship. The file looks to be 3.99 Gig on the mirrors, but odds are it won't fit the FAT size limitations on disk.That's curious because BT is saying that it is 4.04 gigs in size.
I wonder if the mirrors are wrong, if the mirrors have a corrupt (truncated) file, or if Klaus managed to keep the size to the one byte less than 4 gig limit for this reason and BT is just reporting a somewhat high value (perhaps because of the other files included in the download, but they are normally tiny and I would not expect it to throw off the figures by that much).When someone here gets the ISO and confirms the md5 checksum, please post the exact size of the iso file. I was going to grab it myself but aborted the BT download as soon as I saw the size; as my only XP system does not have a DVD burner and is low on free space, while my DVD burner system is still Win98 based.
