Hi,
how can non-deb packages(only tar.gz available) be "installed/
integrated" in a customed/personalized Knoppix CD?
Thank`s a lot for any tip!

Just like you normally would. :)
./configure && make && make install
Or however your particular app is built. Of course if you want .debs then you have to do it a bit differently.
apt-get install checkinstall
./configure && make && checkinstall
man checkinstall to see more of how this tool worls. It is quite easy to use.
