What is KNOPPIX®?
KNOPPIX is a bootable Live system on CD or DVD, consisting of a representative collection of GNU/Linux software, automatic hardware detection, and support for many graphics cards, sound cards, SCSI and USB devices and other peripherals. KNOPPIX can be used as a productive Linux system for the desktop, educational CD, rescue system, or adapted and used as a platform for commercial software product demos. It is not necessary to install anything on a hard disk. Due to on-the-fly decompression, the CD can have up to 2 GB of executable software installed on it (over 8GB on the DVD "Maxi" edition).

The "small" (CD) edition of the KNOPPIX Live System has not been updated for quite a while now, which may be explained by the ever-growing included software portfolio and the small amount of space available. Now version 6.0 has been released, based on Microknoppix, which is a complete rewrite from scratch, featuring a new boot system and a yet much reduced software collection, with the ADRIANE speaking menu system as an option in english and german language.
