Knoppix use 2 partition one for swap and the other for root( here are the home directory). You can install knoppix in this 2 partition and let your old home partition, and after write in the /etc/fstab file to mount that partition as home directory at boot time. For example if your old home partition are /dev/hda5 and the file system is ext3, add this line in /etc/fstab <file system> <mount
point> <type> <options>
<dump> <pass> (file header)
/dev/hda5
/home ext3
defaults

0 (line to add)
