The kernel drivers inside the initrd_ntfs need to match the kernel and the kernel drivers inside the knoppix iso. The linuxrc boot script inside the initrd_ntfs needs to support the "other" linux. The same Grub can be used for all but the menu.lst will most likely need to be customized. It is a case to case situation. Just try it. If it is close enough, it will work. Regards, Gilles
