Is it possible to include knoppix-autoconfig somewhere in the boot process so that the HD installation gets configured exactly the same way as the Knoppix CD?

I have searched here on this website and I have also googled a bit. I am sorry if I am missing something. Any hint to RTFM would be just fine.

I am just surprised that this topic doesn't seem to be that important or why isn't it covered in the docs? To me, the auto configuration is the most important reason to switch over to Knoppix and I would guess that this is just the same for many users who either don't have the time or the Linux experience to figure out all that stuff on their own. And I am also pretty sure that you wouldn't want to run Knoppix from CD all the time, would you?
I'm disappointed that no one has answered your question, which I think is an incredibly important one. Is there no solution to this??
