Until the maintainability issues are taken care of I agree. Right now using
Knoppix on the desktop seems to require advanced knowledge.

I installed it for my box at work today. Maybe I'll change my mind once I
get to know it better :).

I have a plan on how to make Knoppix hard drive installs more maintainable,
but haven't yet gotten everything I need in place :(. Maybe running it as m=
y
desktop will provide me the opportunity to fix that.
