I don't see why you can't try that. I'm pretty sure it will work. The only problem that I could find is if you have enought memory after you install the drivers for your video card. I'll try it in knoppix 3.9 and Kanotix right now

OK, now that we have UNIONFS, we obviate the need for klik and can apt-get install whatever on the liveCD, right?
What I'd like to do is install my favorite game, bzflag, while running a live KNOPPIX CD but it won't run without some nVidia drivers. I've gotten this to work on a knoppix-installer box + KANO's scripts. My question is can I use these scripts on the liveCD?

I used kano's script to install my Radeon drivers in knoppix and kanotix. I'm sure you won't have any problem installing the nVidia drivers.
In knoppix 3.9:
The only way I could play bzflag was using klik.
To use klik, read:
http://klik.berlios.de/ or look in this forum about it
install the game using:
klik://bzflag
klik://bzflag-server
I couldn't use apt-get. don't ask me why, I use kanotix
In kanotix
I used klik, no problems.
You can use apt get in kanotix, but you need to use the keys, etc.
OK, thanx for the reply! I was playing around on an nVidia machine using unionfs on a KNOPPIX 3.8.1 liveCD. I got apt-get to install bzflag but it ran really slowly. I'm going to try KANO's driver next. True, the RAM problem is a limitation....
