I'm sure there are other things there too, but nothing that has been nasty for me. YMMV. (I'm only a beginner with Debian). Someone here on d-u commented today that the Knoppix install puts far too much stuff on the h.d., but I was just pleased to have my network card recognised and configured, which otherwise was going to need a kernel compile. It gave me a complete working system: now I just purge a couple of things each time I update.
