ok i am trying to run knoppix live cd on my computer downstiars, and i figured out that that computer cannot boot from cd. so i created a knppix boot disk from the cd (i.e. D:\KNOPPIX\rawrite2 -f boot.img -d A) so it created a boot disk. i restart my computer, pop in the floppy, then it goes to the knoppix screen with the "BOOT:" screen on there, i type in "knoppix lang=en" enter, (the knoppix cd is also in) and then it tells me that it cannot find the kernal..now correct me if im wrong but isnt it suppose the floppy boot disk suppose to allow you to start knoppix off the cd if your computer doesnt have the capabilities to boot off cd?!

becuase i dont know what im doing wrong

what CDROM do you have ? Sounds like KNOPPIX don't have the needed driver to see your CDROM.
