If the CD works with Knoppix it should work with debian.
That's what's been running through my mind. It appears that something did
not get installed or configured correctly for this particular hardware
configuration using Debian.
Boot Knoppix and do lsmod. This will give you a list of the installed
modules.
Save or copy to a file and boot debian. Do lsmod under debian and see
what's
different then modprobe 'modulename' and add it too /etc/modules for
future
boots.

Thank you! I have attached the output of the two lsmod queries. I would
feel a lot better if someone who knew more about Debian than me were to
suggest which modules are needed before I modprobe my system to death.

Are you sure you have these two files the right way round as I would
assume the longer one is Knoppix as it seems to be the one with the
correct modues in it? Anyway assuming you have them the wrong way round
I would try adding the following modules to /etc/modules, and 'modprobe
<module>' for the current boot to make sure it works.
ide_cd 43140 0
cdrom 40640 1 ide_cd
ide_disk 18688 3
and one of the following depending on your motherboard. These modules
are for the ide controller on your board. 'lspci' should give you a
clue to what module to use, if you can't figure it out post the output
of this command as well.
You can try the 'ide_generic' one first as this should always work, but
not wont let you use 'dma' for the disks in question.

The module below should get loaded automatically as it is a dependency
of some of the others. If it doesn't load it manually.

As far as the difference in where the cd is mounted, I would say that
this is just because Knoppix is a Live CD that it uses the /unionfs/,
but I am still a bit of a newbie as well so I could be wrong.
