from the english page of www.knoppix.org:
What is KNOPPIX®?

KNOPPIX is a bootable CD with a collection of GNU/Linux software, 
automatic hardware detection, and support for many graphics cards, sound 
cards, SCSI and USB devices and other peripherals. KNOPPIX can be used 
as a Linux demo, educational CD, rescue system, or adapted and used as a 
platform for commercial software product demos. It is not necessary to 
install anything on a hard disk. Due to on-the-fly decompression, the CD 
can have up to 2 GB of executable software installed on it.

You can download it yourself or ask if someone with a high speed 
connection will burn one for you.
