How to Install Knoppix to a Flash Drive
- 1). Download the Knoppix torrent using uTorrent. When downloading has finished, insert a CD-R into a computer that has the capabilities to burn a CD.
- 2). Open ImgBurn (if you are using Windows) and click on "Write Image File to Disc." Next, click the icon that shows the Windows Explorer magnifying glass icon to browse for the ISO. Double-click on the ISO and set the write speed to 1x and the number of copies to 1. This will ensure that the ISO is properly written to the CD-R. Next, select "Verify" to allow ImgBurn to check for errors on the CD-R when burning is finished. Finally, click "Write" to begin the burning process.
- 3). Open Burn (if you are using Windows). Select "Applications" and then "Utilities" to launch the disk utility. Next, drag and drop the ISO file into the "Disk Utility" pane and highlight the ISO. Finally, click the "Burn" button to burn the ISO to the CD-R.
- 4). Insert your flash drive into a free USB port in your computer. Ensure that your computer recognizes the flash drive before performing another action. Determine if it recognizes the flash drive by going to "My Computer" to see if the flash drive is shown. Restart your computer, leaving the CD inside the disc drive, after your ISO has been burned to the CD-R. Your computer should now boot from the CD itself. If your computer does not boot from the CD after restarting, you will need to change the BIOS boot order.
- 5). Select "Setup" and press "Enter" from the "Adiane" menu. Next, select "Store on Flashdisk" and press Enter. Follow the onscreen instructions to install Knoppix onto your flash drive.
- 6). Remove the Knoppix CD and reboot your computer, setting the BIOS settings to boot from a flash drive. You are merely changing the boot order. If you do not want to boot from the USB drive and instead wish to boot into your regular operating system, simply remove the flash drive before restarting your computer.
