Gnome is addressed by Gnoppix <http://www.gnoppix.org/>.

Knoppix has at least two applications. One is to get acquainted with Linux.

Another application is a rescue-CD. For this purpose IceWM is far better than KDE. Just IceWM version 1.2.7 is an unlucky choice in my oppinion. 1.2.8 would be better in respect of menu handling.

Just a quick heads-up, since I did it today:

You need to use

apt-get -t unstable install gnome

without the distribution flag, it won't install correctly. With the flag, works flawlessly, with no conflicts I've seen.
