KNOPPIX WORKED!

You say that as if you're surprised :D

Actually "LiveCD" Linux booting has come a long way in the last couple years. Knoppix is a very good one as I understand, though I've never used it personally.

If you're looking for a good desktop distro for a full install though its hard to beat Ubuntu. Their primary focus has been on improving things for the end-user, and making editing arcane configuration files much less necessary though adding standard GUIs for preferences.

Well, I kinda was. Three other Live USB distributions didn't work right...but the CD version of Knoppix 4 worked (and is working) pretty well!

The USB ones are still a bit flaky, but I've rarely had a problem with the live CDs.
