This month's DVD is a version of the Knoppix Live distribution created especially for the 2014 CeBIT expo and made available before release to Linux Magazine.

The Knoppix Live distro features automatic hardware detection, on-the-fly decompression for fast response, and boot from USB for even faster execution.
