did you check to see if your bios is set up to boot from two. I've heard of some that will only boot from cd roms that are slected.

I have a dual cd rom set up also but it works fine for me. :?

iam not sure but i will check thanks

Make sure the CDROM is slaved to the primary master hard drive. When you choose boot from CD the bios checks for a CDROM on the IDE bus in sequential order so: hd0,hd1,hd2,hd3. hd0 and hd1 are on the primary IDE port and will be checked first.

it works just as you said thanks monkeyman i can now burn cdrs in knoppix i hope any idea how to get the iso i have stored on /dev/hda1 ?

If you right-click and choose mount for that partition KB3 will have no problems burning the ISOs. You just have to browse from root ( / )

/mnt/hda1/path to ISO.
