    Solved

    Thank you. I use only live systems run from ISO files with manually installed GRUB2. Reading your post I found the solution. I should have used linux64 (instead of linux) in my grub.cfg file. By this way Knoppix see 3,7G total memory as SystemRescCD does.
    But quite many times the system crashed at "System setup OK" (boot screen). No matter if I used knoppix or knoppix64 cheatcode. The solution was applying "nozram". So, the right (hope) menuentry in the grub.cfg file:
    Code:
    menuentry "KNOPPIX_V7.6.1DVD-2016-01-16-EN 64b hu London" {
        set ISO=boot-isos/KNOPPIX_V7.6.1DVD-2016-01-16-EN.iso
        loopback loop /$ISO
        linux (loop)/boot/isolinux/linux64 knoppix nozram bootfrom=/dev/sda1/$ISO nostartsound noeject noprompt lang=hu tz=Europe/London --
        initrd (loop)/boot/isolinux/minirt.gz
    }
    Also sometimes (this is not related to 64bit kernel) after the boot screen does not start X but a black monitor. This issue I resolve by pressing the power button. Then X starts...

    Hello, again.
    I think you may have an unnecessary 'knoppix' cheatcode right after the knoppix64 cheatcode.
    I think you should see if deleting it helps a little.
    Used by itself, ' knoppix' cheatcode means 'use a 32-bit kernel'.

    Let me start over on this.

    I think you may need to review and possibly change your boot parameters.
    linux64 is a cheatcode for wine; knoppix is a cheatcode for 32-bit kernel.
    Knoppix 7.6.1 in uefi mode should automatically select a 64-bit kernel.
    I think what you may want here is to delete both uses of linux64 and knoppix and see if that works
    If not, then let your first cheatcode be knoppix64.
