For those with Knoppix 3.7, the Feather Linux (kernel 2.4.27) boot disk can be used: ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/featherlinux/boot.img
I basically removed a few SCSI modules that I couldn't find many people using, and compressed the kernel using UPX.

OK, I rawrited the FeatherLinux boot.img to floppy. Burned the FeatherLinux .iso, put that in the CD drive. Reboot to floppy, which results in: boot:, linux24, minirt24.gz........, then PC spontaneously reboots.
Repeat with Knoppix 3.7 in CD drive. Same result.
If I remove the floppy, I can boot to FeatherLinux or Knoppix CD just fine.
Tried this on 2 different PCs, same result both time. The CD drives on both systems are standard ATAPI, secondary master.
I'd be delighted if this worked, but it isn't working for me. Any ideas?

IF YOU NEED A BOOT DISK FOR YOUR KNOPPIX TOHD READ THIS
Hi there, Knoppixers
I managed to write a script which installs a syslinux-based Knoppix CD onto HDD in a FAT16 partition and MAKES THE PARTITION BOOTABLE BY ITSELF - NO NEED FOR A FLOPPY OR THE KNOPPIX CD !!!!.
The FAT16 partition MUST be created BEFORE running the script - and at the run time the script will delete all files on that partition.
The FAT16 partition must have between 710 MB and 1 GB
If anyone is interested in this script, you can read the forum subject here:
http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtop...?p=78001#78001
You will find there a link where you can download the script
