Yes. Portability.
The same Debian Installer runs on 11 different architectures. Knoppix
doesn't.
If a decision was made to break the installer on platforms such as hppa
and sparc in favour o
e i386
install, actually.
A little bit of (well documented) setup to get the lifimage served by
tftp, boot the D330 off the LAN, and you're off.
After that, it's just another Debian box.
