i was looking on the net to find an pre-remastered KNOPPIX [1] version for my purpose: to get my web project on an live CD. i don't use KNOPPIX as it is intended to be: as an linux live CD with a lot of software on it. i use it to make my web project distributable and as a preservation strategy. you burn the CD now with your project, the OS and necessary software on it. an x86 emulator will run it in 20 years. so i striped away all unwanted software to gain as much space as possible. i also get ride of kde - the only window manager is icewm. so don't forget to type on startup: knoppix desktop=icewm to put your project on it you have to remaster the iso yourself. there are many remaster how-to on the net.[2-6]

download the latest lamp_knopppix_raw.iso [1] its 200MB in Size actually. there is a list of all packages on lamp_knoppix_raw [2] i made a perl script (knx_purge.pl) to purge the unused packages on KNOPPIX: i was able to do it without broken packages and unresolved dependencies. but i'm sure there are more unnecessary packages to remove. please email me any comment and corrections. i added nano [3], my favourite text editor everything else is exactly like on the original KNOPPIX the scripts i used and some documentation is ready to download [4-7]
