I have a cd version of knoppix that a freind made for me and it works great and i absolutely love it, just wish I could save stuff! / not be using my cd drive so intensly.
On initial bootup, try the command
Code:
knoppix tohd=/dev/sdb1
or whatever your usb drive would be if not sdb1 - it's called a "poor man's install" and does just about all I need. You can also use your hard drive, e.g. sda1 or hda1, etc. You'll be prompted to create an encrypted persistent image, which allows downloaded stuff (like Flash video player, and Chrome) to stay on, and your data as well. Thereafter, use
Code:
knoppix fromhd=/dev/sdb1
or whatever.

Cheers!
