are taken care of. After you re installed and logged into Knoppix using one ofyour accounts, connect to the Internet. Then: 1.Choose System.KPackage (Package Manager). The KPackage package management program opens. 2.In KPackage, choose Special.Apt: Debian.Update. A separate KPackage window appears. 3.When asked for your root password, type it and press Enter. Within the secondary window, you can watch the update process. Onceyou see the text RESULT=#(where # stands for any number), the updateis complete. You ll also see the word Donea bit above it. 4.Click Cancel to close the second window. It takes a minute or so for KPackage to process the new package lists itjust downloaded. 5.In KPackage, choose Special.Apt: Debian.Upgrade. The Update selection just grabbed the latest list of available packages. Choosing Upgrade now grabs all the updated software and installs it. Asecondary window appears, and you can watch what s happening inthere. First, KPackage figures out what software it needs to update. 6.When asked whether you want to continue, type Yand press Enter. Now, KPackage actually grabs the updates to install them. This processcan take a while (an hour or longer) the first time you do it, dependingon how long your version of Knoppix has been available. You can tellhow much longer it has to go by watching the percentage marker in thebottom left of the window. Once the download is complete, KPackagebegins configuring the packages for installation. 7.If you re asked questions about how to configure packages, answerthem as best you can and press Enter after your answer. Unfortunately, this process can feel a bit cryptic. You can always go back and change things if you have to, later. Often a default is offered, so try just pressing Enter if you re not sure what else to do. After you veanswered all the questions, the updating begins. The longer your down- load took, the longer your update will take, so again be prepared to wait. You also may be asked more configuration questions along the way, somake sure to at least glance at the screen from time to time. The secondary window closes on its own once the update is complete. You can now close KPackage. 387Chapter 21: Ten CoolUses for Knoppix29_
