-When creating an ext3 filesystem with Knoppix 3.1 the filesystem is created with an extra option that prevents debian woody from being able to fsck it correctly (hence it cannot boot). Too get around this after you have created your ext3 filesystem (mke2fs -j <device>) execute the following commands
+!! [Ext3] FileSystem~s
- debugfs -w
<device

- feature
-dir_index
- Ctrl-D
+[Knoppix] 3.1 creates [Ext3] FileSystem~s with an extra option which fsck(8) on [Debian] [Woody] does not support. This prevents [Woody] from booting. You can fix this by issuing
<tt
>tune2fs
-O ^
dir_index ''device''</tt> after creating the FileSystem.
-Debian Woody should now be able to use the filesystem without problems.

it the same but easier to do __tune2fs -O ^dir_index__ ?'' -

+[Knoppix] should automagically find an existing swap [Partition] on boot and use
it. This will make
the whole system much faster (remember that it has no real disk, only RamDisk by default). Alternatively you can set up a file called <tt>swapfile</tt> in the root directory of any non
-[NTFS] partition and [Knoppix] will use that as a swap file.
