Success!

I found that the Knoppix-full.iso I generated was misnamed so I ran it again thru k3b and re-burned the DVD+R/W which then produced a bootable DVD. Failed to work the first trial because I ran the failed .iso again!!

This is a 699MB Knoppix V3.7 running in kernel2.6 and responded to myconfig=scan.

It is essentially a rebuilt .iso with no changes except for the new-minirt26.gz that Belyi has kindly provided. I assume it provides the split parameters necessary for the 2GB per split additional apps.

Now I have to learn the ropes for adding apps to the system. (Assuming this is a split system with this method I have employed).

Perhaps someone can try loading apps using the Belyi ideas and report all about it.
