Easily install software on KNOPPIX

APT to the rescue!

Steps to install software easily on KNOPPIX via command-line APT

You probably could use Synaptic Package Manager or aptitude in KNOPPIX as well, but one of us doesn't like graphical interfaces. ;-) (I have used aptitude to look at the packages, but not to install them.) Therefore, this statement remains untested.

• 1. Get to a root shell by pressing Left Control, Left Alt, and F2

  2. Type the command apt-get update

  3. Wait for KNOPPIX to fetch the Debian Repositories. (Insert waiting music here :-)

  4. The command apt-get install wesnoth will install the latest stable version of the popular FOSS game called The Battle for Wesnoth.

  5. Happy software management!
