Hm.
Anyway, I couldn't fix the problem usig the ADSL/PPPoE configuration tool. It says that the eth0 is in use by another application or service and the autodetection fails.

I'm still learning how to use linux.
After booting up with the nousb option, I can enable usb drives by doing a few things in the terminal.
knoppix@ttyp0[knoppix]$ sudo su
root@ttyp0[knoppix]# modprobe usb-uhci
root@ttyp0[knoppix]#
root@ttyp0[knoppix]# modprobe usb-storage
root@ttyp0[knoppix]# cd /mnt
root@ttyp0[mnt]# ls
auto cdrom floppy hd hda1 hda3 hda4 hda5 hda6 pts sys test
root@ttyp0[mnt]# mkdir sda1
root@ttyp0[mnt]# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1
root@ttyp0[mnt]# cd /mnt/sda1
root@ttyp0[sda1]# ls

KANOTIX-BUG-HUNTER-03-2004.iso.torrent ntfs.sys
bootex.log ntoskrnl.exe
cdfs.sys setiathome
...etc...
modprobe -l | grep usb
lists every modprobe dealing with usb.
you may want to check the dmesg of your pc using an older knoppix, or damnsmalllinux to see what usb module it used.
dmesg
now.. to figure out how to use chmod so the knoppix user can access the usb drive (not just root)

It means knoppix found your acpi, but perhaps is hanging for just that reason.
Acpi is used for powersaving, inheriting the job of apm, and may (when it works) save power of devices (cdrom, hdd), control the fan-speed, react on power-button (sleepmode) ...
You may try to boot with 'acpi=off' - option. It's quiete unstable and vendor-dependend.
