Shoes may well have been it :-) Cut off the circulation to my brain.
I didn't adduser at all. Just entered passwords for root & knoppix as prompted
by the installer.
I found the Knoppix install frustrating, particularly in contrast to the
PCLinuxOS one:
Click on "install to hard drive" (admittedly not the easiest location in the
menu tree to find, but the instructions are pretty clear)
simple GUI for partitioning, (I think with a default?)
buzz whirr...
passwords
simple network questions
working...
(Maybe I exaggerate a bit, but it was a very pleasant surprise in terms of
simplicity & effectiveness, although it took a while longer than knoppix :-)
Linux doesn't have to be arcane :-)
Cheers
