You would need to remaster the CD or hd-install knoppix to make any permanent solution.

But you can run commands similar to the example above to mount one or several windows shares each time you boot knoppix.

Once mounted, yes you can save files to the windows share or copy them back inot your ramdisk. You can't use a network share for a persistent home without a lot of work though because knoppix builds its home directory before any networking services are started.

I made a script on my remaster called mountnetdrive which makes things a little easier.

just run as root:

mountnetdrive # $hostname $sharename knoppix

#= should be any single character- this is appened to the mountpoint
$hostname is the host to conenct to
$sharename is the name of the share

# is used to append to the mountpoint. The script will create /mnt/netdrive# each time you run it. So I usually use numbers 1, 2, 3, etc so that each time I use the script to mount a new share, I know it'll be mounted at /mnt/netdrive1, /mnt/netdrive2, etc.
