So the question still remains...can we have persistent home and opt on the same partition as KNOPPIX?

Could do it similar to way i did persistence before the boot option, although it's kinda messy and probably not foolproof.

1) boot with "frugal" and *without* "opt=" or "home="
2) have /opt/bootlocal.sh replace home and opt symlinks with actual directories (mointpoints), and mount your persistent directories to those mountpoints:
rm -rf {/home,/opt} && mkdir -p {/home,/opt}
chown root.staff /opt
mount --bind /cdrom/home /home
mount --bind /cdrom/opt /opt

I don't remember if this is exactly the way I had it before, but it looks kinda right =o)
