Re: ndiswrapper blacklist - howto with write-protected CD?

When alternate (linux kernel) drivers are installed and if you would rather disable that and use ndiswrapper, you can do so by blacklisting the module. For example, if bcm43xx is the alternate driver, to disable it, add
blacklist bcm43xx
to module configuration file (typically /etc/modprobe.conf).

Without having to re-burn the entire Knoppix CD, how am I able to make changes such as this to files that are on the CD?
Since you are using a CD, you need a rewritable device like a usb thumbdrive to store your Knoppix settings. What you need to do is create a "Persistent Disk Image", this is one of the options under the main menu option "Knoppix". Once a persistent disk image is created, any changes you make will be saved there and the next time you reboot, Knoppix will ask you if you want to load this image. This image will be named Knoppix.img.
I hope this helps.
Cheers!
