Once again, the biggest problem is getting you guys to be

Does anybody have experience with the following?
1) A smaller cheaper box, perhaps a stand alone box that takes
smaller and slower laptop parts?

possibility. Does anybody have experience with this sort of

I had a similar problem, When I set up the machine I

the autodetection set up the ethernet card as the default

Considering these replies, I think I will just make a seperate ext3

Thanks again!

Part of my modem problem was that there write permission for the user
group for the devices in the /dev directory was not set. I have a
question
Should the whole /dev directory have the the group-write attribute set
down the whole directory?!

Actually, I have a better question.
Since the route command shows me that eth0 is the default, and I know
I have no internet off of that, how can I set up my lan configuration
so that eth0 never gets the default route status, this should free up
the dialing dialog to take over that status, right?
OK, I finally got a webpage after dialing in.
I tried this command off a webpage
route add default ppp0
and things began to work. Apparantly the default is eth0, my ethernet
card. This card is not connected to a LAN, it just came with the
compter and there it sits.
Now, how can I make it so t

Advice please, I can't dial up.
I am using the K environment, and I enter the command "kppp" and when
I go to set the device, I can't. My modem is on /dev/ttys4 but that is
not in the drop down box. I tried "ln -s /dev/ttys4 /dev/modem" from
the shell, but when I select /dev/modem from the drop d

knoppix debian?
As a follow up, if I get a "regular" debian, will I eventually be able
to make my own bootable debian CD with my selections of software? Or
is this a capability that only knoppix has?
Thank you
