You may find that loading tohd to a FAT32 partition in the USBHD could permit Knoppix version 3.6 to load kernel2.6 in your machine.

Pleased to hear you have had success with toram!
I am addressing this post in Knoppix2.6 in TORAM with 3GB of ram. It shows 876,088KB in memory use and 2,234,112KB of free memory in system guard display.
I find that the toram option works well if the memory setting in the toram script of linuxrc is set to at least "1000000"KB. Mine is set to "3000000"KB in the script. This requires re-master of the minirt26gz.
I have not tried to load Knoppix26 version3.6 from USBHD. I have The DVD version installed therein. I find that myconfig option is OK in TORAM mode.
I did do a strange thing; I loaded the Knoppix version 3.7CD from USBHD (DVD version therein installed) using the TORAM option and myconfig option and the system loaded (with many error messages) using the Kernel from the CD and loading to KDE in the DVD boot-up. The DVD Kernel is 2.6.3. Kernel 2.6.7 was verified as installed in uname -a.
The internet was not accessible, an error message reported that the interface device was not recognized. Thought I would mention it as a sidelight.! The memory figures were all present in the system resources and all DVD programs listed.
Experiment it is!
Good luck in getting Knoppix 3.6 running. Mine runs great as you can see from this post!
