bootdisk-how to?

[Guest]

I'm using a laptop that don't have a floppy drive, and it's harddisk is
formatted with ntfs. I wanted to have a bootdisk that can see it.
I search the internet to find ways and landed me to this site:

My problem now is I can't do it since I don't have a floppy drive.
Do anyone there can send me an ISO file or image copy of it.
Thanks.

KNOPPIX 3.8.1 can see NTFS drives. This is a free download as an ISO file.
However, it s also a large one, about 700 Meg. KNOPPIX can do a lot more
than just read files or copy them. It can also access the internet, write
memos, etc. It is, in reality, a LINUX distribution that packs a lot on one
CD. Further, by default it does not write anything to your hard drive,
although you can change that. Link to KNOPPIX:

If you have a friend that will let you use his CD Burner then it should
be fairly straightforward. Even better use his computer. Check here

Hmmm, I'll check it out. Anyway, Is it the same as the ubuntu live disc?
