Thanks for the howto on remastering knoppix. This is something that I'd really like to do. However if having 1.5 Gig of RAM is a requrirement for this proceedure, it's doubtful that many people will be able to do this. Maybe I misunderstood you. Were you saying that the total amount of RAM and swap needs to add up to 1.5 gig? That's certainly more reasonable.
