"everything gets copied fine"...are you saying the installer finishes withth 'Knoppix successfully installed to HD' message but won't boot?

If so , try booting from your CD with the bootcode :
knoppix root=/dev/hda5 noinitrd ro lang=us
(substitute hda-where your Knoppix install is for hda5)
This should boot into your HD installation. If it boots successfully, attempt to reinstall lilo with the command 'sudo lilo'.
If it doesn't, something went wrong with your HD install & you may have to redo the install.
