Well, I didn't really expect that, but it does give us a direction to look in. It certainly points to the disc itself, and makes it much less likely that you have CD drive problems.

Bamm... /media/hda_whatever/knoppix.img was not cleanly umounted. check forced.
What? you can boot the CD, as long as you don't do the home=scan thing? And you're only mentioning that now?

I have tested with NTFS and Fat32 only.
As far as I know it works fine with FAT. I would never let Knoppix write to NTFS, and I would consider any NTFS partition so written to to be corrupt. I don't use a home setting and have never gotten one to work right, so I stay out of such discussions, at least when I know that's what the poster is posting about. The last thought that I have to offer in this matter is that it would make a lot more sense to tell home where to look for the data than to give it the scan command, at least if scan is having problems.
