    Boot Trouble: /dev/scd0

    Hi all,

    I just downloaded the cluster KNOPPIX cd and I tried to load it to a couple of the PCs to check it.

    It hangs at the point where:

    Looking for CDROM at :/dev/scd0

    and then it says that it cannot load KNOPPIX.

    Note, that recognizes the CDROM as a secondary primary disk (hdc)

    Thank you


    Stu

    Check out the knoppix cheatcodes http://www.knoppix.net/docs/index.php/CheatCodes. I also get the same error on some PCs. The code I would use is: knoppix nodma
    If that does not work, reference the above link and try others like noapic or failsafe.
    I hope this helps.
