No, it can also run from ramdisk.

No problem. Boot your Knoppix CD, switch to the second virtual console
(ctrl-alt-f2) and type in the following commands:
sed 's/vga=791/vga=788/g' /usr/local/bin/knx-hdinstall > /knx-hdinstall
chmod 755 /knx-hdinstall
/knx-hdinstall
This copies knx-hdinstall from /usr/local/bin to / and replaces all
instances of vga=791 with vga=788. After that, permissions of the new
file are set to executable and finally it is run.
