There is a way to make it not display kernel stuff on boot, It was like that on my old SuSE install, i dont think it makes it boot any faster, i think knoppix boots faster because it starts alot less services than a normal OS because it obviously has limited capabilities being on a RO File system and media :) Just what i would imagine though, im not 100% sure
