Hey everyone!
I tried out Knoppix Live CD couple days ago and got into it. Now I'm trying to go one step further. Not really installing it (at least that's what I think I'm doing) but making booting a little bit easier.
I followed this tutorial how to go by doing the [thread title!].
http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/Win_Partition
I followed each one of the steps in the tutorial, restarted my pc, and here's what I saw:
Grub 0.95
Knoppix 3.8.1 from NTFS hda1 ISO
Memory Test
Knoppix 3.7 Kernel 2.6
There's some more stuff to the above but I think the first choice is what I want. There were couple other "Knoppix 3.7 Kernel 2.6" but when I tried selecting them it looked for the Knoppix CD. Not what I want.
So... Here's what's wrong when I select the first choice [Knoppix 3.8.1 from NTFS hda1 ISO].
Welcome to Knoppix Live Linux-on-CD [NTFS]
Scanning for USB/Firewire
(Some other crap here)
Looking for CDROM in /dev/hdh16 mount: ioct1: LOOP_SET.FD: Bad file descriptor
Mount: Could not setup loop device
Couldn't find Knoppix filesystem, sorry.
Dropping you to a very limited Shell.
(Here are couple commands)
I'm pretty sure I didn't edit one of the default file settinsg (which I'm going to troubleshoot in a while) but... Anyone know what could be the problem?
If it helps, my Windows still works (Yupiee!) and I'm running the following:
AMD Athlon 64 3200+ OC 2.2GHz
1GB 3200 RAM
Albatron PRO 2 754 motherboard
NVIDIA 6800
120GB Seagate HD with 8/MB cache. Single NTFS partition.
From the CD, Knoppix works like a dream. Everything works. (Except that I don't want to have the cd in the drive all the time).
One more question. If I make a logical partition for my Knoppix (not NTFS... Forgot the name), will I be able to save files onto it?
Thanks!
