You could get the Knoppix disk and run it. Look at the script it uses for installing apps while running on cd. Maybe you could use or modify it. You will be installing onto the ram disk, so memory could be an issue.
You need to write to your hard drive to install

Hi Steve,
I think it would be very difficult to install and run any program that is not already on the cd.?? However, I'm not a guru, so it may be possible.?? You would certainly need??a section of your hd formated for linux.
Hope this helps.??
Jim??
