Linux Installation?

Hello
I am a new user to Linux.I have got Live CD of Ubunu Linux.Now the problem that I face is that I can’t access my hard disk when I use Ubuntu through the live cd.The disk partitions are shown in Ubuntu but when I double click on them,it shows “Couln’t mount.Access denied’.I don’t wanna install full version on my Hard disk.Pls suggest any workarounds.

Another solution may be that I came to know that Knoppix offers ‘Poor Man installation’ technique where you can copy the live cd on hard disk and boot from that and use knoppix without live cd.In this way,you get good performance without the hassles of installing the full version.Is there a way to do that with Ubuntu.Pls help.If no,then can anyone tell me fom where on the internet can I order free Knoppix CD (I can’t download as my bandwidth is limited).

Thanks in advance.

    Try partitioning your hard drive… on startup it will ask what OS (providing) you want to still use windows…

    Ok try to read source on section “Mount/Unmount”

    Your problem is likely to stemmed because you’re not using root access.
