Have a question about Knoppix 3.6 after install.

Installed Knoppix 3.6, everything went well and tried various 
applications like Firefox and Thunderbird, they worked well.  So I did 
apt-get update and then apt-get upgrade, after rebooting and login, the 
kdm loads to the point and stops at "loading peripherals", screen goes 
blank for a minute starts over at the login screen.  So unable to 
login.  Posted the problem on the Knoppix forum.  Got an "smart" answer 
something like "well knoppix is a live CD system, what do you expect?  
Knoppix is not meant to be installed to the HDD".  Earlier versions of 
Knoppix installed on the HDD worked fine after doing update and 
upgrade.  Also I stopped at boot before kdm loads and tried "apt-get 
reinstall kdm" came back that kdm was all ready installed.  So now I am 
stumped.  Reinstalled Knoppix version 3.5, now have the same problem.  I 
noticed when doing the updates, it removes kdm and some kde files and 
does not reinstall them. 

Just for another check I downloaded Kubuntu 5.04 "Hoary Hedgehog", 
installed it and did update and upgrade, it works fine.  Why I want to 
use Knoppix?  It has all the Amateur Radio programs in Synaptic, where 
Kubuntu does not and don't feel up to installing them via tar ball method.

Wonder if any one else has the same problem with Knoppix 3.6?
