Unfortunately it doesn't work :( You can disable the autobuild again.

It seems cloop not working with recent kernels was an obstable for 
Knoppix distribution itself:

	http://lists.debian.org/debian-knoppix/2007/09/msg00012.html

Klaus Knopper found the bug, but didn't publish the source code yet (at 
least I didn't find it).  I asked him on debian-knoppix to publish the 
source code ( My mail is not archived yet, so here is only a link to the 
October Index of the mailing list archive 
http://lists.debian.org/debian-knoppix/2007/10/maillist.html ).

Why?  Is the compression ratio better, because it doesn't have to 
compress file system data?  How much better?

Best regards,
