I've got doubts,mainly,about two things:
Your swap is fine and if already formatted as swap then yes the installer will recognize this.

31G for Knoppix? Well it's more than enough. You can use it as is no problem BUT i would suggest you partition your disc into smaller sections. A minimum of 3G is needed for Knoppix. You then can easily copy any of the directories under / to another partition. This gives you an easily re-sized filesystem.

1st_knx-install :

a] Will it chose automatically the swap boot and root partiotions?? (i think it will be not likely, in this case what shoulld i prompt if needed? will i be asked to select them?? should i indicate them as /dev/hdax ??? Thx )
Not automatically but it will alow you to select predefined partitions for /root as well as allow you to partition your disc if it isn't already done.

b] Will it mount the directories (read as:all the structure),as i see them when i use form the liveCD, in the root partition ??? if yes: can i change that later??? or it's quiete all right to leave it as it is???
Not exactly no. Everything on hdd install is under / which is standard for *nix.

c] Once i'm done with the install,will i be able to remove or add any packets i want/want not??? [(if i'm not wrong in the "new method mode" (knoppix installer) someone said the it would be easier with this last method) or i don't have to worry much about it? ]
knoppix-installer offers you the advantage of being able to immediately add your own user name during install. Additionally you have the choice of a "knoppix-loke" install which is booting the compressed fiel system from hdd just like it were from cd. The 'Debian' type install is what you want if you wish to add and remove packages.

knx-hdinstall has neither of the above features but does allow you to select your filesystem type. If you want reiser then use knx-hdinstall.

2nd_GRUB :
I don't currently use grub nor do I use win boot loaders. While I won't attempt to dissuade you from using grub I would like to mention that installing lilo is almost automatic. If you already have win installed it will add it to your menu selection where you can choose either Linux or windows to boot from.
