Tony: I suspect DSL 2.0 boots by default from the image on /dev/hda1(because that is the first one it finds) unless you tell it otherwise - I had problems running on the other (not quite so cruddy) laptop if I didn't specify fromhd=/dev/hda2
In the meantime, if you're still persisting with this, you can also rename the knoppix file on your windows partition and see if it will then boot from your real partition? I'd still stick with the frugal install.
I don't know about the CD problems, the only thing I can think is that perhaps there's a problem with your CD burner?
Cheers and beers!

PS Glad to hear your girl is well enough to be stealing your machine!

I've been told the best way to learn is to explain it to someone else in front of "experts". People who are knowledgable (and sometimes even if they're not!) on a topic will soon tell you if you're wrong, and love you for the opportunity to either show their prowess or make jokes at your expense!
