When Knoppix was first released it was heralded as revolutionary in the Linux world. Its autodetection and configuration capabilities were unsurpassed. Many of my colleagues remarked that if 'KNOPPIX can't do it, Linux can't do it'. Theoretically, one would be able to get a Knoppix CD, pop it into an arbitrary system, run it, save one's data to a partition, USB stick, etc....), reboot and the existing system would be left completely as it was before the CD was placed in the system. n terms of Linux time, many a eon has passed since its inception and yet there are few other distributions that are able to claim the same level of usability (even with the inclusion of commercial distributions such as Redhat, Suse and Mandrake Linux).
