Knoppix install on a new computer

There are several ways to do it..
1.) Swap out the Hard Drive and install on a different drive, switch them back if you have a need for what's on it now.
2.)Find a good Knoppix install from USB thumbdrive tutorial and set that up, you may need to tweek your BIOS.
3.)Run Knoppix off of the CDROM/DVD drive and use a mounted external storage device (USB) or network (s)ftp/scp repository for your files.
4.)My preferred choice - Reformat the hard drive and install KNOPPIX or any other sensible choice.
