I've been struggling with the same thing for quite sometime but haven't had the time recently to delve further. I chose Knoppix because it does autoconfig at bootup. There was some tutorial about installing from the iso and then having to install isolinux (if I remember correctly) boot-loader manually.
Strange enough, I remember this tutorial asked me to create a FAT16 or FAT32 partition and extract all knoppix files on this. This was so because, trusting my memory again, this bootloader expected the kernel on a FAT16/32 filesystem. I don't remember much after that and most of it is mixed up, but ultimately things didn't work. Though I've just had an idea now and write back soon if it works :) Sharad Birmiwal On 9/23/07, Vikas Rawal <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > I have thought of a solution on which I want to get some views.
