Another real live example of the use of Knopix also comes from school.
To teach the student something about linux the teacher puts one
knoppix cd/dvd into one (his/hers) machine before class and starts the
netboot server. Then all other machines are turned on and the class is
ready to begin.
No need to wipe out windows or make space for dual boot.
No previous class having messed up the configuration, added backdoors
or otherwise break the system.
At the end of class every pupil saves his data to floppy or a
fileserver, turns the computer off and everything is back to the way
it was before.
