Just my first one:
Do a poorman's install to sda1 and then use your custom boot floppy.
Add the boot parameter "frugal":
dsl frugal
so that you can have write access to your sda1 partition and so you won't get that "Please remove the CD" prompt upon shutdown.
For backup/restore and myDSL function, you can boot with:
dsl frugal mydsl=sda1
and choose backup device "sda1"
It should automatically find your knoppix image file on your SCSI drive if it was placed in the right location C:\knoppix\knoppix
You may be able to speed things up with:
dsl frugal mydsl=sda1 fromhd=/dev/sda1 restore=sda1
And you can edit your
syslinux.cfg
file on the floppy and make your custom boot parameters part of the "default" boot configuration.
