Are these scripts run from a (booted) Knoppix CDROM or are 
they run from a hard disk partition containing Knoppix? And 
are these scripts the best way to go or should I follow one 
of the guides from the the net? If the latter, which guide?

My preference is to use the hd partition I have already 
created from Knoppix 3.4 and when I am through tinkering 
with it to make a Knoppix style bootable iso image.
 
My objectives:
1. Bootable CDR that autoconfigures like original Knoppix.
2. Delete some packages to save space.
3. Add a stripped down version of TeX.
4. Add some templates of my own.
5. Sell the CDR.

On the last point, if there are legal problems with selling 
a CDR containing certain packages which ones should I 
delete?
