I would worry about the 479 Mb of persistent store that you have, should
your knoppix-data become corrupted.
No, there is nothing corrupted!

The size of the persistent memory is 3.1 GB and not 479 MB! 479 MB is the value of the used space within this drive. With
Code:
du -sh /KNOPPIX-DATA/
I get the value of 465 MB.


Also, there would be, for me, an
un-necessary overhead in time on mounting 3 Gb persistence on every boot.
In my case

  • boot with persistent memory of 3.1 GB: 1min 4 sec
  • boot without persistent memory 58 sec
