Re: [debian-knoppix] gd



Hi Isabella,

Thanks for your response.

If I understand your advice correctly, you use the Knoppix CD as base
and add all necessary packages for a webserver with them and
configuration saved on a hard drive.  If I am wrong please correct me.

My main interest is to install Knoppix on a hard drive, add all
necessary packages, configure all of them, save/create a ISO image and
burn the latter on a CD/DVD.  Then it becomes a webserver CD or DVD.

Would it be possible or just a dream?

B.Regards
Stephen
