Wow, that site is really stupid (dangerous).

To muck with the contents of knoppix...

1) Get the knoppix iso.
2) mount -o loop knoppix.iso /mnt/knoppix
3) download and install cloop if you don't have it from
http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/sources/
make sure to follow the README exactly.
4) cd /mnt/knoppix/KNOPPIX
5) ./KNOPPIX /mnt/knoppix-root
5a) Commentary...
The KNOPPIX file is an executable with a script
prefix that looks like:
#!/bin/sh
insmod cloop.o file=$0 && mount -r -t iso9660 /dev/cloop $1
exit $?
Executing it mounts it with the arg as the mountpoint and cloop as the
device driver.

Now you can do what you will to the knoppix root filesystem mounted in
/mnt/knoppix-root.
