Yes, KNOPPIX is a wonderful tool. I use Fedora Core on my machine, but
I support my girlfriend's machine, whom I talked into installing
Linux instead of WinXP. I downloaded several LiveCDs for her to try,
and KNOPPIX was the one she liked best, so I got her to use Debian.
So I came here the better to support her.
I can email partition/sector data. I presume that I should backup the
the first sector of each partition using dd?
Umm, I guess you are asking technique? Yes, dd is what I had

You get the MBR using /dev/hda, you get the first sector
of the partitions from /dev/hda1, /dev/hda7, etc.
But you knew that.
Shoot us an e-mail about what happened when you can.
