Can you recommend me a linux distribution that can be installed on a hard drive to use it as a second operating system in the computer?
I’ve tried knoppix bootable live cd and I liked it. Is very good.
Can knopping be installed on a hard drive? Or any other linux distribution?

I have an old Gateway Solo laptop. I have been successfully running Xubuntu Linux on it. This week, I have been trying to install the latest version, 7.04, “Feisty Fawn.” It freezes at the “Installing system” stage. It says “15 percent” and “Detecting file systems.” I used my live CD’s tool for checking the integrity of the ISO, and supposedly it is OK. Is there anything I can do to have a successful install?

How can I get a Windows XP cd bootable?..it’s because I’ve accidentally erased the operative system trying to deleting Linux and it looks like the only way to get back my files…somebody help me please. I’m lost. My HD is “encrypted” cause the login password and it has very very important information. It will be always important u know. I’ve already used a Knoppik cd bootable. I can open information by this way but cannot extract the information… Thanks u all readers..

I used to have at bootup the error like reboot and select proper boot device or insert media in boot device. Then I flagged the HD with Gnome (linux partition software live cd) as boot and I had the message NTLDR missing. I booted with the Recovery Console and entered FIXBOOT. It said MBS corrupted. Filesystem FAT!! I had NTFS. Now in gnome it says fat16 and “Unable to read the content of this filesystem”. It can’t tell me how much I used and everything. What can I do to keep my data? I don’t care about windows booting up. I also have knoppix as a live cd to retrieve it but it mounts with weird symbols as filenames and no folders or anything right. PLZ HELP!
