Well, that was it. I bought another USB key, to replace the one I had
burned out doing so much testing on :) and reformatted it with FAT16
instead of FAT32. Thanks for your suggestion.
The one tricky BIOS, that failed to boot earlier, now happily saw it,
and SYSLINUX found all of its files! Knoppix booted right up without a
hitch.
So, now that that's solved, here's my "final" writeup of my preferred
way to make a Knoppix bootable USB key:
