Hello, I'd recommend using one of the primary (first listed) mirrors for download, since I don't check the others frequently.
One thing I forgot to mention: In Knoppix 8.6.0, the 32bit kernel is somewhat broken (needs to limit memory by mem=800), so rather use boot option adriane64 or adriane mem=800M than just "adriane", depending on your CPUs bitness. This will be fixed in 8.6.1. nethack can be installed like in any Debian distro-based by sudo apt update sudo apt install nethack-console Same for surfraw.
