Yes I did!!

knoppix works by booting from a cd with a basic file system and the knoppix 
image on the disc or it will boot from a floppy and search cdroms and hard 
disks for the fs and knoppix image and so using the 2nd method all you do is 
create the knoppix file and then boot off a boot floppy!!
