After searching for my suitable linux distro, I have finally found which one I want to keep. I chose Knoppix. Knoppix is a distro made from the Debian structure. I started using Debian, but it really isn't friendly with my graphics card; but I liked the packages debian included. While knoppix had some great packages, but not all what debian had. Debian had packages I wanted for server purposes, which knoppix didn't include. Well I downloaded the packages for knoppix. I am asking how can you make knoppix ask for a second CD after its done installing it's packages? I want it to automatically install all packages without doing them all individually.
I'm not quite sure what you mean...

Once you HD-installed Knoppix, it is possible to have a debian system.
Update /etc/apt/sources.list and run apt-get update and apt-get upgrade

This will update software directly from the internet.

Knoppix doesnt have "less package" than debian because you can add debian repository in sources.list
