Any tips - what files should I copy ?
The ones I have seen come with a program to do the hard disk
installation for you. I don't remember what it's called though.
I am not talking about program that installs it in the hard disk.
Docking:
"Dyne:bolic solves the problem of istallation in a very simple way:
there is no installation! you simply copy a directory and this is
called "docking".
In dyne:bolic this only consists of copying one directory from the CD
to the harddisk, you don't need to change anything of your partition,
just copy a directory in it: drag the dyne/ folder from the CD on the
icon of your harddisk, that's it!
And of course, when you want to uninstall the dock is as easy: just
delete the /dyne directory in your harddisk!"

This is extremely handy, and I am a little paranoid with hard disk
install programs since I don't want to back up my data too often...
Musix GNU+Linux has the option to copy the entire CD to the harddisk
(like all knoppix derivates; cheatcode: tohd=/dev/hda1 for example) and
boot from there; no need to install anything but to boot (just the
initial part) you will need the CD (with cheatcode: fromhd=/dev/hda1 or
whatever). I use a separate partition (on my machine /dev/hdb5) for this
and it works great. All the details are on the CD under Boot options.
