Can i boot from a floppy?? if so can i have the program or .iso image that will do it.

My 2 cd-roms are in the BIOS and only one of them 1 is detected as CD-ROM and that one is broke so when i say for it to search the CD-ROM for the bot seqeunce it uses the broken one.

Thats why i need a floppy to boot the cd. Is there something i can just put on a floppy and restart??

On the CD, in the "Knoppix" folder, there is a program called rawrite2 that will make a boot floppy for Knoppix. The disk image is "boot.img" - it's in the same Knoppix folder. Type boot.img when it asks, follow the directions, and you're set. (Of course, make sure it's a blank floppy you're using.)
