ok, this knoppix mod does 2 things :
uses a customized kernel ( see changelog )
with 3 main features :
the low-latency patch ( makes things go faster )
the internetional patch ( adds crypto support )
the LPP patch ( nice boot up )

USE THESE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
This is a proof of concept and only useful to those working on knoppix.

To use this, you need to remaster knoppix. I do not provide instructions for this, just what you need to do..

NOTE:::::
WHEN I TALK ABOUT DELETING AND REPLACEING FILES IN /boot/ etc,
I AM TALKING ABOUT /your-knoppix-source-directory/boot/ etc.

DO NOT DELETE YOUR SYSTEM FILES!!!!!!!!
Also, backing up your KNOPPIX files is prolly a good idea.

1 Use the included boot.img for your boot image on the CD

2 in your knoppix source working dir do these mods :
- replace the knoppix-autoconfig and xsession files in /etc/init.d/
with the included files

- delete all files in /boot/ and replace with
the included vmlinuz and System.map-2.4.19-knet files,
then symlink /boot/System.map to /boot/System.map-2.4.19-knet

delete /lib/modules/2.4.19xx

replace with the included 2.4.19-knet directory
( so you have a /lib/modules/2.4.19-knet/ directory

remaster and thats it!
