symlink to KNOPPIX/subdirectory?
I'm following the remastering howto, and added a new directory to the /mnt/hda1/knx/source/KNOPPIX directory. However, when I boot with this, the directory does not show up in root but is in /KNOPPIX. I note that other directories in root are symlinked, e.g.,
/usr --> /KNOPPIX/usr
and so forth.
I've looked at /etc/knoppix-autoconfig and other places, but am not sure where I add the necessary "ln -s" command. This has gotta be a FAQ.
Please point me to the documentation for this.
TIA!

I use a /data in the root of my filesystem for some things I've added- documentation, karamba themes, stuff like that.
What I do when remastering the CD is point anything that needs those files to /KNOPPIX/data , so it works when running live from the CD. And then I edited the hdd-install scripts to create a /KNOPPIX during the hddinstall and move /data in there (so that my links don't break after hdd-installing).
It's a work-around. I'll post the lines of code I used later when I get home.

Thanks! The code will be of interest.
I still would like to know where and when the root symlinks are created, so that things like pathnames and enviornment variables are set.
Does anyone know?
