[debian-knoppix] Swapoff -a?



When does Knoppix mount swap partitions?  During the boot process?

Is it possible to build a different Knoppix CD where this behaviour is disabled by defaut? This would allow it to be enabled when required.

Regards,
Brian

While reading about the Knoppix boot process, I notice that Knoppix will use existing swap partitions if they exist. When performing forensic analysis on a system this behaviour is not desirable.

Just do a
 swapoff -a
before starting the analysis.
