I will check back if this only happens with the option toram or if this happens in general.

It won't happen without toram, because the KNOPPIX file needs to remain mounted in order to use the file system. To remain mounted, the partition containing the KNOPPIX file needs to remain mounted. If you tried to umount the partition while the KNOPPIX file is mounted, you'd get a message saying it's in use.

If you want to use toram but don't want to have to manually mount the original root partition, you can add a mount command to /opt/bootlocal.sh (and make sure you're using the backup/restore feature).

hiho,

i couldn't test the /cdrom/boot issue...

But I tried to start "opera -kioskmode ..." after loading fluxbox in .xinitrc but it doesn't start opera.

I had to put this line into .fluxbox.inc to work. Perhaps this works in .xinitrc, but I lack knowledge of bash scripting...

the *.inc files are essentially extensions of .xinitrc. They simply run commands that are associated with your chosen desktop. It would have the identical behavior if those commands were added to .xinitrc itself, but this is a way to keep things simple rather than have an increasingly complicated .xinitrc file.

You can't run commands in .xinitrc *after* the window manager loads (or more precisely after the "exec" command).
Anything extra you want to put in .xinitrc should be put in before the exec command, and in most cases should have "&" at the end of the command.
