Can knx-hdinstall or knoppix-installer do this?
knx-hdinstall cannot but knoppix-installer should.
I think you need to run it, save the config, quit, edit the .knofig file where
you can instruct it to use several partitiions instead of lumping everything
under / (follow the comments in the file itself). Then restart the install script
with this edited config.

Caveat: that's my understanding but I have never actually tried this myself.
Not the multl-partitions install, I mean; the script itself worked fine on one
4Gb root partition, and offers nice enhancements over knx-hdinstall.
