I wanted to see if I could get knoppix9.1 working with mame,

"lsb_release -a"

I've noticed that if I use a persistent image file and for some reason it gets corrupted (powering off abnormally) that I'll get a bunch of filesystem errors in dmesg. I can fix it by booting with...

I usually use knoppix with the no3d boot parameter, like "knoppix64 no3d noscreensaver" but I've noticed with 8.2 it will go into a endless cycle of trying to start X, failing and trying again.

Thanks for all of your suggestions. Two of my favorite things are knoppix and mame. Someone awhile back put out something called "knoppixmame" but that hasn't been updated for a long time.
