I'd like to get all those necessary files cached into RAM so that no CD activity would be necessary for surfing! (I don't have enough RAM to use the TORAM cheatcode)

thanks!
Can't be done. When running from CD, Knoppix is going to have to access the CD for bits of code it needs & there is no way you or it can predict what these might be.
You could use a swap file to reduce the amount of CD access required, Knoppix contains a utility for creating a swap file on a DOS system.
Or you could do a 'toHD' install which essentially copies the CD to HD & runs it from there (requires about 700MB but does not require you to partition your HD). Normally this is booted from a floppy but you can install Lilo & set it up to boot from the HD.
Or you could partition the HD & do a full HD install. This has the advantage that you can then add, remove & upgrade packages & you system setups don't have the be redone from defaults after each boot.
