I installed Knoppix 3.3 to my hp machine and it will not detect my partition (ext3)(type82) and it will not detect my CDRW, DVDROM, or Lexar Media USB 2.0 drive however it will from the bootable CD the Mirror I used was perdue.edu and the md5 file checked out

It's look like general problem for Knoppix-3-3. I also have close problems:

Peanut-9.5, Fedora, and Knoppix-3.2 have no such problems, but Knoppix-3.3 refuses to recognize HD during booting, and next, mount, remount, fdisk, cfdisk do not see HD either.

Only in Knoppix-3.3 /proc/kmsg :

<4>hda: host protected area => 1
<3>hda: drive not ready for command
<6>VFS: can’t find ext2 filesystem on dev ide0(3,1,2,3)

As only Knoppix-3.3 has this problem, its looks like that vmlinuz-2.4.22-xfs causes it. I never set any passwords or any in this PC.
What is a problem? How to overwrite it?? My be somebody has answer, anf if i'll in find I'' post it here.
Best, Alex
