Title: Accelerated KNOPPIX (in Japanese and English)
Post by: H_TeXMeX_H on 20 May 2006, 23:44

The fastest booting live CD in existance ... if only it came in English:

What's more of interest I suppose is the
Live CD Acceleration Toolkit "LCAT"

if only the manual came in English.

Still, having a boot CD boot in just a few seconds is impressive.

Damn that is cool, booting Linux in a few seconds off a CD,  now that is a great way to show off Linux to friends in a few seconds.

Hopefully someone will be able to translate it.

Yeah ... that's too bad ... I originally though it was in English, I mean the site was in English, so why shouldn't the CD be ? So I downloaded and burned and tried it and it was in Japanese :( I hope they translate it too.

Wait ... it is in English ... they forgot to mention this the last time I went there, but ...

Quote

English version KNOPPIX can be used by inputting the following boot option. boot:knoppix lang=us

And the LCAT manual is now in English too ... yay

Is there a way to change the name of a thread you already started ... like to (in Japanese and English) instead of (in Japanese) ... ?

lol I've shown fast linux cd boots to friends (windows zombies), they didn't care. I have to test this out for myself but I doubt it would matter to them still. It's awesome though.
