Which is the script that 'mount' the partition, or image file, (parameter) for the persistent home directory at booting time?
Thanks!

Hi,

If you're using Knoppix 3.1 you can look here:
http://www.knoppix.net/docs/index.php/PersistentHomeHowTo

In 3.3 (possibly 3.2, haven't tried) you can see under K-menu -> KNOPPIX -> Configure -> Create a persistent Knoppix home directory.
It's the same a giving the command $kdesu /usr/sbin/mkpersistenthome

You then need the cheat code $home=scan when booting, look at:

EDIT: Oops, I think I misunderstood the question. Just had a look at the Forum index!

That is the script to built the persistent home... but I need the script wich is executed on the next start of KNOPPIX (with cheat code $home=scan or a partition $home=/dev/hdxx) and mount automatically the home directory.
Thanks!
