I have a feeling the license on Sun's SDK might make it less likely
(though not impossible) to find it on a pre-built live CD.  That said,
I'd like to build my own version of knoppix that includes tetex, ispell,
and a number of other goodies.  I'm thinking I might try something along
the lines of what's in the following howto to roll my own:

I'll let you know if I have any success.
