    When you use sudo knoppix-installer you must install as Debian style, then you get a chance of where to install grub. You can choose
    not to install grub and on multiboot linux systems edit grub or lilo on the controlling system

    yup i selected debian style and the only thing it asked me was whether install it to mbr or root of partition. even though i did select root of partition it still installed grub and took over my pcs existing boot loader .
