    Concerning the knoppix 'home' cheatcode

    They are right, I had replaced this by
    knoppix_dir=/path/to/KNOPPIX/directory, so you can specify the location
    for the compressed Knoppix filesystem as well as knoppix-data.img. But
    while knoppix_dir was documented, I forgot to kill the home= cheatcode
    in the documentation. And even worse, it's still in the cheatcode list
    for Knoppix 6.5. Sorry about the mistake.

    Regards

    Thank you utu for getting the information needed.

    Of course, now that you only have knoppix_dir to use you have to have the image file in the same directory as the compressed image file. That is not going to please Otropogo or anyone else who is restricted from installing a poor man's on a company PC.

    Well, at least we know now!

    Thanks again
