 Knoppix Floppy Disk Hello, I recently downloaded and burned Knoppix v3.6. I tried installing on one of my PCs with the first boot device being set to CD. It started off fine but then the screen goes blank. I figured it had something to do with the video drivers on my particular PC not being recognized. So, I tried my other PC, but unfortunately I am not able to change the boot sequence in the BIOS to go to CD first. It always goes to the floppy instead. I understand that in order to make a Knoppix boot floppy disk, it has to be created within the Linux shell. I cannot get into the Knoppix and run it in order to make a boot floppy. I was wondering if there was anywhere I could go to download an .exe file or pre-made knoppix boot floppy image that I can use to make a Knoppix boot floppy? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.      |

Thanks. Try booting with another operating system, and look on the cdrom for rawrite.exe and a .img file. But then, I'm not sure Knoppix will run on a PC so old that it can't boot from CD. |
