[Dale Miller]

The home page for Knoppix for Hams is here 
<http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.afu-knoppix.de%2F&langpair=de%7Cen&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&prev=%2Flanguage_tools>.
That is a link translated with google from German to English the link 
would just be http://www.afu-knoppix.de/
There are several place in there download section to get it.
I didn't have any problem downloading it from there.
Hope this helps
