It's already in Knoppix.
But yes, it is possible with a persistent home. Click the docs tab at the top and read about it, or maybe use the search box to search the threads.

I want to know if I want to install, say GNUCash, in Knoppix if this is possible? Do I have to create a persistent homedir?? Any tips will be appreciated.

I don't seem to find it anywhere!!. I've Knoppix 3.4.
Well, now that you've called me on it, I don't find it in 3.4 either!! I thought I remembered seeing it, but it may have been back from when I was using ver. 3.2
My apologies!
Perhaps I can help make up for my faulty memory by providing a link:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnucash/

search for klik

Well, that's probably true if you're talking about a HD installation of Knoppix. But given the nature of the question, I assumed we were talking about running from live CD. If you are using live CD, you can't change /usr/bin/, because it is hard-written on the CD, or it exists as a ramdisk which will disappear upon logoff. So, the best way I've found to install apps is to install to a persistent home directory, which will be defined by default as /home/knoppix/. Of course, there's nothing to stop you from setting up subdirectories of the persistent home, such as /home/knoppix/gnucash, or even /home/knoppix/usr/bin/gnucash.
BTW, I looked for gnucash in the klik installer already, but didn't see a script for it. firebyrd is right that if an install script for gnucash is prepared under klik, that would be a particularly easy and effective way to install. Apparently, gnucash requires some degree of setup, which I haven't yet had time to figure out, so I'm really in no position to advise on that issue.

I tried installing it on the PHD, but I get a read only error from the package manager. Any ideas??
