Trying to boot Knoppix from the hard disk using the "bootfrom=/dev etc" boot code.
I made an .iso of my Knoppix DVD, called it 'knoppix.iso' and put it in a hard disk partition /dev/sda4. On reboot I specified knoppix bootfrom=/dev/sda4/knoppix.iso at the prompt. But it hits an error and reverts to the DVD image:
inserting /modules/cloop.ko
error: module cloop is in use
I'm confused. This is something about loopbacks and perhaps file locations, right? Pointers appreciated.
