Remastering of 64-bits version: Trouble with isofs? Huge .rr_mved



I have just tried the first remastering of a 64-bits version, and everything looks fine.  The init halts, however, at the end of the init script, when /home is to be mounted by /bin/mount and /sbin/init is to be run.  Knoppix complains it can't find those files, but I have loop-mounted the KNOPPIX image and run mount from it - works perfectly fine.  So I wonder what is wrong here.
It is a large image - 7.5 GB (compressed from ca 20GB, 4700 packages) , and there were lots of complaints during the creation of isofs. .rr_moved is huge:

  r-xr-xr-x 4956 root root 632832 Jul 17 09:52 .rr_moved

But everything seems fine under loop-mounting, from df output:

 /dev/cloop1           19578442  19578442         0 100% /tmp/KNOPPIX

So I wonder if the problems may stem from isofs?  Or is there some kind of difficulty inherent in remastering from HD?  Or is there something with 64 bits in play?
I copied /dev from a KNOPPIX cloop image, not from the HD install.  Could this lead to such problems?

I also think I might switch to squashfs, or is the present cloop-based system much to prefer?
