Can 1 called another? I don't know. See this forum post that describes the linuxrc file where some of the cheatcodes are used.

Write your own pieces of scripts & stick those pieces in the isolinux.cfg, linuxrc, knoppix-autoconfig.
See the linuxrc from knoppix 3.8. http://www.virtualacuity.com/james/knoppix-unionfs/linuxrc-3.8.html
It controls detections of usb/usb2, unionfs, firewire, dma which is all controlled by the boot time cheat codes.

If you don't want to follow my advice, then just say so but don't dismiss those links as general. They describe how knoppix works so if want to change how knoppix works using cheat codes, I doubt (short of Klaus Knopper himself giving a class) that you will find a better resource. As far as I can see there is no other way to add cheat codes.
