Hello,
I downloaded the
latest KnoppMyth ISO, checked the MD5SUM, burned it to disc. I set the
BIOS to boot from CD and the KnoppMyth boot screen comes up. No matter
what boot option I try, I get a message saying "ide: late registration of
driver" followed by:
Can't find Knoppix
filesystem, dropping you to a very limited shell.
I figure the kernels
are having a hard time finding the cdrom for some reason...I have tried it on
two different computers:
-
One is a Soyo K7VME (Via KT400 chipset I believe) with a newly purchased DVD
burner set as primary slave. (I have also tried it as Secondary Master with no
luck).
This box is currently running Myth on Fedora Core 1 and the DVD drive works fine
there, happily playing DVDs, so I don't think the drive is a
problem.
-
The second machine is my Dell Dimension 4600 with the Dell supplied 48X cdrom
drive. On this machine, it attempts to boot from the CD, never gets to the
KnoppMyth screen and fails over to Win XP.
Per suggestions on
various forums and lists, I have verified the MD5SUM, downloaded a new copy of
the ISO from a different server, re-burned to disc, etc, etc...with no
improvement. Also per the Knoppix cheat codes list, I have tried the
"atapicd" and "noscsi" cheatcodes (both singley and together) with no
effect. Should I be able to see this CD in Windows via explorer as with
other linux distro boot cds? I ask b/c I can't...With the disc in the
drive on the Windows machine, Windows thinks the drive it
empty...
Any
suggestions?
Thanks,
Marty
