Why bother and not keep Knoppix simple and leave it as it is DESIGNED to be used?
I have Knoppix installed on my hard disc (distro 7.0.2, kernel release 3.3.7.).
Could you please tell me if ALL scripts in the directory /etc/init.d/ are
executed at boot time?
The reason I ask is because I have altered (intelligently) one or two of the
standard scripts that are in /etc/init.d/, such as
/etc/init.d/knoppix-startx
/etc/init.d/knoppix-autoconfig.
But before I altered them, I kept a copy of the originals in /etc/init.d/, and
in the above case the copies I kept are
/etc/init.d/knoppix-startx-ORIG
/etc/init.d/knoppix-autoconfig-ORIG.
Does this mean that these latter scripts are actually being run at boot time
AS WELL AS
/etc/init.d/knoppix-startx
/etc/init.d/knoppix-autoconfig?
The system seems to run fine, but it's only just occurred to me (after a couple
of years of use), that I might be running 2 lots of scripts as above.
Your advice would be much appreciated, thanks.

No, Knoppix doesn't take care of '/etc/init.d/knoppix-startx-ORIG' and '/etc/init.d/knoppix-autoconfig-ORIG'.
Have a look at '/etc/inittab'.
Many thanks Werner. Your kind reply is most welcome. I can breathe a sigh of relief that I haven't made a blunder.
