If you did it with Knoppix and you are sure that the drive hasn't been affected
then a complete shutdown of the machine will kill Knoppix and anything that is 
residing in its memory buffers.Knoppix does its permanent writes when the shutdown
sequence is initiated (if you haven't saved the changes already). "Pulling the plug" 
on the machine will prevent that and in this case it should leave the original file
system intact. YMMV
