Re: how to copy a live-cd?

Probably the 'lazy man's' way is to open k3b from the
'multimedia' icon in the 'K' menu and click on k3b dvd
and cdrom burning. Then click on copy cd.

Or do a 'run command' K3b and it will open.

Pay attention to the default 'tmp' file path and make
sure it is sending it temporarily somewhere there is
enough space. Knoppix and 128mb in ram doesn't exactly
work, so I set the tmp path to some partition that has
plenty of space. Then it burns a copy okay.

Note in the window that you have several options, one
of which is 'copy cd'. click on that.

Cyclists should expect and demand safe

just as does every other user.

Nothing more is expected.

Nothing less is acceptable!

Long live Knoppix!!
