Mind if I ask you what are the advantages of knoppix over native SuSE CD in rescue mode when using to fix SuSE installation?
this is a no-brainer... Knoppix puts you into a full graphical desktop and gives you access to lots of tools that only run in this mode. Not only that, but rescuing data is nice and easy as well as you can easily plug USB drives in. Also the settings that Knoppix has automatically set itself up to can be used as a baseline for things like xf86.config etc.
