    Regarding Kanotix, it followed on the basis of Knoppix which has always been designed to run live.
    Last Kanotix version is from 2019.

    Knoppix is still being developed by Professeor Klaus knopper and is probably still the only live linux to offer a talking desktop for
    disadvantaged users.
    Very smart distro Looks difficult to get latest version which was exclusive to linux days Chemnitz and a German magazine.
    Both 32bit and 64bit kernel supporting both old and new computers, the 64bit version also supporting systems with more than 4GB of RAM and chroot to 64-bit installations for system rescue tasks. The bootloader will start the 64bit kernel automatically if a 64bit-capable CPU is detected (if not manually specified otherwise).
    For Computers that can only start from CD, not from DVD or USB flash pen, a tiny bootable CD image has been placed in the “KNOPPIX” folder, which can be burned and used together with the full USB or DVD version in order to start on old computers.
    LXDE, the lightweight Knoppix standard desktop featuring the compiz 3D extension (0.8, back to genuine Debian).
    Accessible → Adriane Audio Desktop.
