It's somewhere in the /etc/init.d/knoppixautoconfig file, I believe, last time I looked. If it's not there, there are other files in /etc/init.d that you might look at. The file's code would probably have to be changed, and that would require a remaster of the distro to put it in. They have the Ctrl-Alt-Delete thing because linux can get fouled up sometimes, especially on marginal hardware (older computers), and we need a way out, other than unplugging the box. The other one is Ctrl-Alt-Backspace, that gets you out of the X server. I spend a lot of time testing all the various LiveCD distro's, and with some, those key combinations are necessary as some of the programs can lock up the machine. DSL is one of the best-tested, however, but all linux distro's need those two key-combos, even DSL. In my remaster of Knoppix, I had to hunt down all the programs that could cause serious problems, and remove them. Some of my beta testers went right to those bad programs and crashed their boxes in a few minutes! Couldn't have that!
