You may need to add the recursive option to the cp command you gave:<br>
<br>
:~/mnt# cp -R /mnt ~/knoppix-usb/bootdisk<br>

Anthony<br><br>------BACKGROUND INFO.-------<br>Modifying miniroot.gz: (instructions)<br>"First you need to modify the Boot-image (KNOPPIX/boot.img}.<br>Mount it (mount -o loop boot.img /mnt)<br>and copy everything in a directory
<br>(e.g.~/knoppix-usb.bootdisk).<br>You need to modify "linuxrc" in "miniroot.gz" and put the relevant usb<br>modules in "modules/usb/."<br>--------<br><br><br>_______________________________________________
