I downloaded knudfl's suggestion, and was a bit worried that its size was 701.1MB, however k3b in debian lenny burnt it ok to a 700MB CD (the md5sum checked out ok), and it booted up fine BUT it defaults to Japanese with the odd bit of arabic on some of the menus!
I know from browsing the CD that the knoppix browser screen (which offers various languages) exists on the disk BUT I have yet to find the cheatcode to default to english.
I would also note that my us keyboard was not functioning as usual, obviously it wasn't detected properly (my -/_ key returned -/=) and my wifi ISP has an _ in its name, unfortunately.
A four page google search didn't turn up any other x86_64 knoppix iso's, perhaps it is very rare.
I would note that the boot dialog showed three 'eth' interfaces set up and I only have wired and minipci interfaces, which is odd.
