Patch for knoppix-image



Hi there,

Those .wh..* files seem to be special aufs files. I fixed the bug by adding 
another --exclude to the rsync in knoppix-image (see attached patch).
I am no aufs expert and I do not understand all consequences of excluding 
these files. I leave the evaluation to the experts. Klaus? :-)
