Ok, I will admit from the start I am a newb at this. might be something stupid to answer... I have been trying to get going Flonix (60 meg version of knoppix) on my new 128 MB USB watch. I've done all of the stuff a tutorial has told me to do, but it hangs after the BIOS does its system analysis.
my computer:
-2.4 ghz P4
-512 mb RAM
-128 radeon 9000 graphics card
-built in soundblaster
what ive done so far:
-formatted drive with FAT16 filesystem
-copied kernel and other files to usb drive in win2k
-syslinux.cfg pre-configured for boot with knoppix
-run syslinux.exe -s h: (at this point DOS processed for a minute, didnt print any confirmations, and just continued...)
-set BIOS to boot FDD-USB first
-restarted computer
-bios did system checks then system just hung, with blinky cursor thingy
thx for your help
