> Has anyone looked into the way the Ubuntu live CD works?
Yes, lots of people have done that.
> Is it similar to Knoppix?
Apart from being a semi-Debian-based live CD, no. Ubuntu is arranged differently, uses squashfs, and if I remember right, it uses an initramfs and grub. These last 2 bits are pretty hazy in my memory, though.
> Anyone tried to remaster it?
Yes, it's easy to remaster. There are lots of HOWTO's out there. The last time I did it, I followed http://wiki.oss-watch.ac.uk/UbuntuDapper/Remaster, which worked fine with Edgy. I haven't played with Feisty.
