    On second thought...

    .
    Greetings again, patrick013.

    In further review of this thread, I found a site which offers a program called
    Runtime-Live-CD. The site also provides a checksum to verify the free download.
    This site is at: https://www.runtime.org/data-recovery-live-cd.htm

    In reviewing the material on this site it becomes apparent that a few-years-old
    CD version of Knoppix has been used to provide an iso from which to make an
    adapted Knoppix LiveCD of Version 6.7 or 7.0 which in turn would provide a desktop
    from which to call-up additional runtime programs. These additional programs are
    not free.

    It is probably possible, but would be unnecessarily difficult to resurrect a working
    frugal install from the outdated KNOPPIX image to be found within the Runtime iso.
    At best, you will achieve getting a likely crippled and certainly outdated version of
    Knoppix to work in this manner.

    My suggestion is to abandon the Runtime-Live-CD approach and start over with
    actual Knoppix iso material. This will also make the wiki suggestions more correct
    for the material you are working with. As a further suggestion, perhaps use a
    Knoppix 7.2 LiveCD series iso and make a LiveCD first before attempting to make a
    frugal install. There is no 7.4 series LiveCD iso, unfortunately. Perhaps also,
    re-consider even making a LiveUSB rather than a frugal install, since this will
    be so much easier to do.

    Checksums are still important, as indicated in my prior post,
    and in addition use the built-in Knoppix checkcd as a further check that
    the basic KNOPPIX compressed image is ok.

    Well checked the md5sum, no problem. Tho built on Knoppix it is not a commercial product.
    Just a linux iso so driveimageXML works in wine etc.. I could burn it to CD but thought
    the loopback would be easier. No problem. For a few Windows backups might be good.
    I have a copy of ActiveBootDisk the official MS supported backup program. So a CD burn
    of their program would be OK then.

    thanks for your response.

    Patrick
