Below is small excerpt. " Klaus has released the latest version of Knoppix, 3.8, to the crowd at CeBIT 2005.

The exciting news, however, is the addition of UnionFS. UnionFS stacks your Knoppix ramdisk on top of the read-only filesystem on the CD, the effect being that you can apt-get install, and otherwise modify all of the files on the system as though they were all writeable. Here I'll go over why I think this is going to change Knoppix in a major way. " For full read, go visit oreillynet.com
