not too hard to download an image and burn to cd
after that, it should be a matter of simply putting the cd in, booting the laptop from the cdrom drive ( can change the boot order in bios ) , and doing stuff across a network to back data up ( since your cdrw will be in use )
though, it might have issues with acpi on the laptop, theres a startup swtich which disables it for you so you might need to do that to make knoppix start
