Hi all,
I just want to know if I should spend any effort trying to connect to the internet via a USB wireless adapter (Netgear MA111) if I am running from the LiveCD (Knoppix 3.9).
When I tried the first step and did
modprobe ndiswrapper
I got the following
FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.11/misc/ndispwrapper.ko): Operation not permitted
My guess was that my harddisk is write protected that is why I got this message.
The HDD has a non-working version of Win2K on it plus a bunch of files which I am not ready to discard just yet, so I don't know if making the Hard Disk readable would cause any damage to existing data on it.
Any directions from this point forward would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
