Read the post.  From version 3.3 on, Knoppix auto-detects and uses Linux Swap partitions if found.  No key presses.  If you want to alter the disk, as I said, you have to use "noswap" so that Knoppix runs without a swap file.  If you have anything mounted on the drive, you can't repartition w/ qtparted or parted.

True, but you have to "press keys" to use the
available swap partition or to create a swap file.
