  Knowing Knoppix is a beginner-friendly book designed to help with these
situations:

     * You can't start Windows! Disaster? Possibly not. It is often
     * possible to rescue files using Knoppix from crashed Windows
     * computers, even when Windows cannot be started. This guide takes
     * you step by step through the process.
     * You are curious about Linux, and you want to discover what all the
     * fuss is about.
     * You want a useful guide to help you get started with Knoppix.
