knoppix fb1280x1024 Use fixed framebuffer graphics (1).
knoppix fb1024x768 Use fixed framebuffer graphics (2).
knoppix fb800x600 Use fixed framebuffer graphics (3).
Customizing KNOPPIX
Several boot options exist that tell KNOPPIX to look for a customized home directory or configuration
information on hard disk or floppy. See the section ???Keeping Your KNOPPIX Configuration???
later in this chapter for information on how to both save a customized KNOPPIX configuration
and tell KNOPPIX where to look for that customized information at boot time. (Unless they were
created from KNOPPIX, most other Linux distributions will not use these boot options.)
Table 11-4 lists options you can use to identify the location of your customized data or tell KNOPPIX
to run in ways that will make it perform better. Some of these options are described in detail in
sections that follow.

Option Result
knoppix myconf=/dev/???? Tells KNOPPIX to run the knoppix.sh script from a
particular partition. For example, replace ???? with hda1
(first partition on the first IDE drive) or sda1 (first partition
on the USB flash drive or SCSI drive).
knoppix myconf=scan Search available drives for the knoppix.sh script.
knoppix home=/mnt/????/filename.
