In researching I ran across this command as a boot option:

knoppix home=/dev/sda1/knoppix.img or
knoppix home=/dev/sda/knoppix.img

I'm not sure what the /knoppix.img does, but it consistently froze the computer while still in the booting process. Also,

knoppix home=/dev/sda1 or knoppix home=scan

manages to make it through booting to the blue "initiating system sequence" screen before locking up the system.

All other similar variations of this command seem to be quite effective at locking up as well.

It seems to me that if this pen-device can't survive the bootup process, it sort of defeats the purpose of trying to use it in a live cd format. Assuming that the boot options work, wouldn't it be necessary to type them in manually for every system startup, since the pen-device is not even recognized until after hardware configuration? Is this what is supposed to happen?
