When I try to boot using "failsafe" from my Knoppix 3.4 cd, I get an endless
stream of error messages of the form
isapnp: unexpected or unknown tag type X for logical device N (device 1), ignored
where N increases by 1 each time and X cycles among 0xa, 0xae and 0xff.
If I don't use failsafe the screen just goes blank until I press the reset button.
The machine is a celeron 400 system with an Abit BH6 motherboard and a soundblaster 16 sound card. I'm pretty sure the cd itself is ok because it boots Knoppix with no problems on a newer Athlon machine.
I can't see anything in the cheatcodes that is supposed to disable pnp detection. Is there any way of doing it? And if I can disable autodetection, is there a way of feeding Knoppix the correct information about my hardware?
Thanks.
