Hey everyone,
I am very new at this, and before I actually partion my hard drive and install knoppix, I wanted to burn it to a CD and test it out... So of course I had a problem doing this!
First, I downloaded "KNOPPIX_V3.8.2-2005-05-05-EN.iso" From ftp://ftp.cise.ufl.edu/pub/mirrors/knoppix/.
Next, I burned it using "Nero" to create a bootable disk (This might be the problem because I'm not sure if it was suppose to be bootable)
I popped the CD into the drive, went into my BIOS, and changed the boot order to make CD ROM the first one.
So far, so good...
Now, it started to load, I think, but then it stalled half way through. It stalled right after this scrolled down on the screen:
Caldera DR-DOS 7.03
Copyright (c) 1976, 1998 Caldera, Inc. All rights reserved.
[DR-DOS] A:\]
After this comes onto the screen, it just pauses and there is a blinking square next to it. When I hit enter, "[DR-DOS] A:\]" keeps appearing.
I am VERY new at this, so please be kind and help out if possible.
Thanks in advance,
