I used the "install KNOPPIX to flash disk" menu item to make a KNOPPIX 6.0.1 USB flash drive.
I then followed the remaster HWOTO on the KNOPPIX wiki to make a customized compressed KNOPPIX
file. I started by cp -Rp /KNOPPIX /mysdcard/source/KNOPPIX and followed the instructions
to chroot and install new packages. I then used this command to produce the compressed file:
Code:
mkisofs -R -U -V "KNOPPIX" -publisher "username" -hide-rr-moved -cache-inodes -no-bak -pad ./ | nice -n 5 ./usr/bin/create_compressed_fs - 65536 > /knoppix/KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX
Booted back into Xandros on my eeepc, I replaced the old KNOPPIX file with my new file,
but when I tried to boot from the flash drive, I failed with the message that the commands mount and init could not be found.

I switched back to the old KNOPPIX file, with no problem.

Is there a way to mount these files so I can inspect them for diferences?
trying to mount them -o loop failed with wrong file system errors.
When I looked at the files with less, I saw that they start with a short script that has mount commands in it.
