    3.4 Poor Mans Install with Loadlin

    In 3.3 everything worked fine used loadlin in the command prompt
    and knoppix booted up fine and my orinoco classic gold wifi card worked
    in kismet and airsnort.

    NOW in 3.4 my wifi card isnt even detected. As there is no MKfloppy or
    boot.img in 3.4 im using the old vmlinux and miniroot files from 3.3 in
    loadlin. Is this causing the problem with my wireless card?

    How can i make loadlin work in 3.4 where can i get the new vmlinuz and
    miniroot???

    Just have a look under boot/isolinux on your cd:

    linux24 is the 2.4.x kernel and minirt24.gz its associated miniroot FS
    linux26 is the 2.6.x kernel and minirt26.gz its associated miniroot FS

    I had tried that but as i couldnt see a vmlinuz i didnt know what to use
    so linux24 is the 3.4 equivalent yeah?
    (using linux24)
    I have tried it and it worked eth0 my wifi card has been detected.
    BUT kismet doesnt work. I typed sudo kismet like i use to in 3.3 but it
    just drops out.

    FATAL: unable to open cisco control file '/proc/driver/aironet/eth0/config' 2:No such file or directory.

    I have no idea what is wrong or what i need to do.

    Also i can surf the internet no problem.
