Knoppix 3.9: Kernel panic on ThinkPad 770

[coogor]

Hi,
looks like the 2.6 kernel of Knoppix has a problem on the ThinkPad 770. A boot results immediately in a kernel-Panic. I tried parameters like ACPI=off, noapic, pci=bios but nothing helped. Knoppix 3.4 using a 2.4 kernel worked, Ubuntu 5.04 as well.
Is there a way to get the latest Knoppix working?
Thanks!

Hello,

you may use the parameter:

pnpbios=off
