I confirm, knoppix.img is not detected when it is on the same

Right. There's a typo in the /etc/init.d/knoppix-auto* file. The
cloop file must be on one of the following:
NTFS, vfat, ext2
Whereas, the persistent disk image (PDI) must be on one of the
following:
NTFS, vfat, ext3, and a few others I cannot recall
So, your choices are:
1) put both files on a vfat (or NTFS although I've had better luck
with vfat)
2) put the cloop on an ext2 and the PDI on ext3, NTFS, vfat or one
of the other valid FS types.
3) modify /etc/init.d/knoppix-auto* to include ext2 and remaster
The 3rd option isn't so bad except that the resulting ISO will
probably be bigger than the one the Klaus makes. Grep for ext3
(there's only one line that has it) and change one of the ext3's to
ext2.
If you need more info, just post to this list.
