It is not needed.All you MUST have in your KNOPPIX directory is the boot.img and the KNOPPIX cloop file.The boot.cat is created when you run the mkisofs command.
I use,

mkisofs -r -J -b KNOPPIX/boot.img -c KNOPPIX/boot.cat -o my.iso knx_cd

where knx_cd is my directory setup like the Knoppix cd with a KNOPPIX directory inside that holds the KNOPPIX cloop file and the boot.img.

I also put a tech directory in /knx_cd with my scripts,docs,tools pkg.list and such outside the cloop file.After the mkisofs command is run and my cd is burned the boot.cal magicaly appears inside the KNOPPIX directory.
