May I ask why you prefer the Ubuntu live cd? The way I see it (which may 
very well be wrong, if I am, please tell me) that Ubuntu Live CD is 
primary there to see if your hardware is supported. If you want a 
"rescue" cd, or a functional working environment, Knoppix is the better 
choice IMO. Ubuntu live cd is slow and hasn't got some (in my opinion) 
essential packages.
This isn't to say the CD is useless, far from it. It just isn't designed 
for operational tasks.

Again, if I am dead wrong, flame away:)
