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!

Somewhere else in the forum I read a post that the boot option PNPBIOS=OFF helps with old laptops... (It helped me on my TP600E....
