I want to try a KNOPPIX install to HDD with a twist.
I installed DSL (Damn Small Linux) onto the USB key, now I want to install
KNOPPIX onto the HDD from DSL.
I have partitioned the HDD with my partitions to hold linux and swap space.
I have a USB CDROM that has been mounted as scd0
KNOPPIX 3.7 CD is mounted onto ~/cdrom.
The compressed KNOPPIX filesystem image from the CDROM has been mounted on
cloop1.
I am wondering if it will work if I mount /dev/hda1 onto a mount point, copy
the entire filesystem to hda1, chroot to hda1 and setup the boot loader to
boot KNOPPIX.
I imagine there is some setup that must occur prior to the thing working....
Am I on the right track here? Kyle......? ; )
