For those of you who came to tonights WestSide meeting, thank you. And as for that brief period of uncertainty regarding that particular copy I did. It is the correct thing to do ... as I suspected the command was right and I shouldn't have double guessed myself ... in the root dir of a Knoppix boot /bin, /boot, /lib, /opt, /sbin, and /usr are all links into /KNOPPIX. So /KNOPPIX is the location of the root directory essentially. Oh, and Hans and others ... the newest star office will export directly to flash ... I haven't tried it though. Austin
