Knoppix (2003-07-26-BETA) starts fine. Where can i see what it has 
detected? Or, alternatively, is it a good Idea to simply take knoppix? I 
read it is based on Debian. Can i use Debian packages with knoppix? Or 
is it possible simply to substitue the Debian-Kernel with the 
Knoppix-kernel on CD1?
