Hello everyone, i have a laptop which does not have a cd-rom but it does have a compact flash reader built in and is capable of booting from it. I also have a 1gb cf card. My question is, how do i put knoppix onto the CF card so that it will boot just like the cd-rom version?I tried burning knoppix to a cd, then copying everything on the cd over to the CF card but that didn't work.

that would be because the card doesn't have the boot sector thats needed. If the laptop has a floppy drive you could boot off that or find some program that writes ISO files to differnt devices. :?
