Hello,

Yes, kano's scripts would be a good place to start.
If they work on your new distribution that would
be nice. As far as I can see, all you need to do is
add gcc.

I am also interested in a new KNOPPIX project at
http://klik.berlios.de
which makes adding simple programs and updates
to an running KNOPPIX system. Perhaps a demonstration
of how one click could load new plug ins, settings,
or utilities would be of interest to you.

Best Wishes
