Knoppix is incredibly flexible and can be used for many tasks, but these tasks generally fall into a few different categories: desktop use, system administration, system recovery, and live-CD remastering. The first few chapters act as an introduction to Knoppix and help you boot Knoppix on your hardware and then use it as your Linux desktop. The middle chapters feature Knoppix as a system administrator multitool with tips on how to do many common system recovery tasks both on Linux and Windows. The final chapters focus on Knoppix as a platform to create other live CDs with an introduction to many popular Knoppix-based distributions and steps to create your own.

Chapter 3, Tweak Your Desktop

The Windows Recovery CD isn't all it's cracked up to be, and when your Windows system breaks, you can use Knoppix to rescue it. This chapter helps you back up files and settings, reset passwords, hack the registry, and even scan for viruses.
Chapter 8, Knoppix Reloaded
There are a number of other live CDs that have been based on Knoppix. Each derivative has its own special focus, and this chapter covers some of the most popular Knoppix-based distributions and why you might want to try them in addition to Knoppix. Before you remaster your own CD, check out these distributions.
