Knoppix is a portable Linux distribution with a collectionof hundreds of programs and utilities-a veritable Swiss Army knife in CD form. This practical and flexible Linux distribution runs on the fly from a single CD with no need to install anything to your hard drive. Knoppix's excellent hardware detection, collection of programs, and ease of use help explain why Knoppix is radically changing the face of Linux. Though Knoppix is the most popular live CD Linux distribution available, until now there have been no books on the topic. A weighty theoretical tome or a book for dummies won't do-the perfect Knoppix book, like Knoppix itself, must be as useful and clever as a Swiss Army knife. Clearly, Knoppix calls for an O'Reilly Hacks book.Knoppix Hacks is a collection of one hundred industrial-strength hacks for new Linux users, power users, and system administers using-or considering using-the Knoppix Live CD. These tips and tools show how to use the enormous amount of software on this CD to troubleshoot, repair, upgrade, disinfect, and generally be productive without Windows. With Knoppix you can:Test drive a Linux desktop without the need to install Linux Troubleshoot and repair Linux and Windows systems Create a thin client network with just one CD Replace a web server or firewall in an emergency Perform a security audit on your entire network Virus scan a Windows computer from the safety of Linux Customize Knoppix for personal or business use Easily install the popular Debian GNU/Linux distribution with all of your hardware detected and configured Knoppix Hacks provides ingenious fixes, clever customizations, and time and resource-saving tips. If you want more than the average Knoppix user, this invaluable book is a must-have.
