Knoppix for Rapid Desktop Deployment

[0]Knoppix has shot into the spotlight as a GNU/Linux distro suitable
for [1]demonstrating quality Open Source Software, standing out for its
ability to self-configure itself into a vast range of hardware, and to
run entirely off a CD boot without interfering with any existing system
setup. That, plus its [2]fat catalogue of pre-installed desktop
software. But OSS enthusiast David McNab has poked a bit deeper, and
found that Knoppix can install itself to disk, resulting in a
completely configured GNU/Linux desktop system, ready to use, in 20
minutes, hassle free. CD no longer needed! Best of both worlds - use as
a GNU/Linux demo disk, and if the user likes it, it's a snap to install
permanently. I can't think of any distro that comes close to this, for
ease and speed of setup. I found McNab's short [3]Knoppix Installation
Howto which gives a very brief and easy guide. With this rapid setup
ability, [4]Debian-based Knoppix makes a great contribution to the
[5]catalogue."
