How to save a file with PClinuxOXOS-LiveCD?

[cgkeller]

I am running PclinuxOS-LiveCD from my CD drive on my WIN-98 machine and it works very well.

However, I can’t seem to be able to save a file permanently; as soon as I log out, the file disappear, even it was properly save under /home/guest/filename.

What is the command I should use to deposit the saved file unto somewhere on my hard drive?

Or can I add a command in a booting disk (as additional booting instructions), using rawwrite on a 3 ½” diskette? What should the command be?

Thank you for your valuable input.

Charles.

If it does not automatically do so mount the hard drive somewhere (I use /mnt/cdrive) you should then be able to save to it.

I gave an answer to this problem in the other thread... I forgot you can just mount your windows partion. The other ideas are:
use puppy linux:

use a memory stick
nondestructly partion your hardrive with fips or partion magic
use a floppy or Zip disk

Thank you Framklin and JStreich for your valuable input.
I will certainly try both ideas, because it is very annoying if you can save those files permanently somewhere.
I also have the same problem with the installing of my
printer HP-890C Deskjet. I install it as a local printer and as soon as the computer is shutoff, the printer HP-890C disappears again, and I have to re-install it every time !!

That's what you get using a live CD without installing anything on the HD.
