I am an old NetBSD-user, and have decided to scrap my Windows partitions. I have tried several Linux versions. Only two of them had some kind of success. Debian 7.8.0 and KNOPPIX 7.4.2. The Debian CD wanted me to find the firmware b43/ucode15.fw and b43-open/ucode15.fw. I have in vain tried to find this firmware on the internet. But Knoppix, however seems to have it built-in. At least Knoppix connects to my Wi-Fi.
I would best like to use Knoppix as my base-system, but I cannot find out how to transfer its boot version to my hard disk. All I find on the internet are explanations on how to transfer earlier versions of Knoppix as boot-loadable versions to the disk. The version 7.4.2 seems to refuse such a transfer. Please, can somebody help me either to make Knoppix bootable from hard disk, or to get hold of above mentioned firmware. Feel free to answer in German, if you prefer.
