How can I boot Knoppix when I have to use a diskette first? ( because this is a school computer with first boot as diskette , and I don't have the bios password and opening the computer and removing the bios password is not an option)
Is it possible to make a linux boot disk and boot from it ? If there is how?


Thanks.

Please do a little bit of searching in the future, this site is not too hard to navigate. If it might be a common question, please search in the 'Docs' Category on the top...

Zentu,
Will the procedures in the docs work in 3.4 with isolinux? don't you need a 2.8 meg boot disk for isolinux?

All you need to do (in windows) is open the knoppix folder on the CD and put a floppy in and click on mkfloppy then you can activate it from there
