What do you want to achieve..? I would imagine any sort of tools on Knoppix would simply install a linux based bootloader Smile!

If you want to erase the mbr and the partition table of the disk
boot from a linux cdrom and do (assuming your drive is /dev/hda)
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda count=1 bs=512 && sync
filling in " 446 " will erase all but the partition table.
filling in " 440 " will also leave the disk-id untouched.
