I am having trouble booting Knoppix 5.3 on my new Compaq Presario CQ61-313us laptop.
The DVD works fine on my HP nc6220 laptop - so DVD is OK.
Configuration:
AMD Athlon™ II Dual-Core Processor for Notebook PCs M300
3GB installed memory
250GB hard drive
LightScribe SuperMulti 8X DVDñR/RW with Double Layer Support
15.6" Diagonal High Definition HP BrightView Display (1366x768)
HP Imprint finish & HP Webcam with integrated microphone
Built-in wireless WLAN 802.11b/g wirelessly connects to the Internet
5-in-1 integrated Digital Media Reader
Normal boot sequence stops at line udev hardware detection line and I get multiple errors - 2631 & 2293 & 2674 & 2102
I have tried
knoppix vga=0 - hangs the laptop
knoppix acpi=off pnpbios=off noapic noapm - hangs the laptop
knoppix acpi=off pnpbios=off noapic noapm hangs the laptop
knoppix vga=0 debug -b 3 - hangs the laptop
failsafe debug -b 3 - starts the system - has trouble midway - but finally I am able to do init 5 and get to desktop
The challenge is that network card, sound etc are not being recognized.
Please suggest.
