Since you can remaster your own variation of knoppix and presumably knoppixmyth the answer is certainly yes. Would it be easy? Probably not.
I made a bootable distribution of gentoo awhile back and it took quite some time to work out the details. Just making a change to knoppixmyth should be easier. Their might even be a more trivial way of doing it, but I'm not familar with the specifics of knoppix myth...
Have you or anyone else seen instructions on rolling your own KnoppMyth CD? I use CVS fairly often and I'd love to use the CD bootable frontend aspect of KnoppMyth but the fact that CVS often has a different protocol version than the release causes problems with the CD boot since the KnoppMyth release falls behind. If there was an easy way to build my own CDs by just updating a source folder with the newer Myth and reburning,
Usually it goes something like this..
1) Setup a partition for the OS your going to put on a cd. In the case of knoppix you need to extract the compressed image there and get it booting.
2) Make your changes to the file system so it all works works well.
3) Clean up all your temp files and things that waste space. (This is important, because you want it to fit on a cd right?) If your distributing it to others make sure you don't accidently leave any valuable data on there.
4) Compress a new image with whatever knoppix uses. I think I used squashfs when I did it last. It is in newer kernels.
5) Reburn a bootable cd.
Now I'm leaving out lots of details since this is from memory. You will need a better source probably.
that'd be spectacular.
