Hi,
cloop and ntfs don't work together .
I have tried it some time ago with a NTFS partition:
modprobe cloop file=/mnt/hda1/KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX
and I get an oops:
kernel NULL pointer dereference
Ciao Martin
I am experimenting with NTFS partition.
I tried just copy the ntfs.o module to the initrd and load it but failed miserably. Will recompile a custom kernel with built-in NTFS support and try again.
Will let you know if I can make it work.

Just found out, too bad
I seem to remember using a DOS partition and LoadLin with Slackware Linux so I could reboot a WINDOZE box to Linux on the fly.
Do you think I could do this with the KNOPPIX file on c:\KNOPPIX as with the boot floppy option, just get rid of the floppy?
TIA,
Thanks for the verification guys. I tried it a few times and thought I was doing something wrong. I wonder if we could get a caution added to the faq about this not working with ntfs partitions.
Thanks again for your help,
Chuck
yes. You must extract vmlinuz and miniroot.gz from boot.imgOriginally Posted by A. Jorge Garcia
for ex. c:
C:\loadlin\loadlin.exe c:\vmlinuz lang=es screen=800x600 ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init apm=power-off hda=scsi hdb=scsi hdc=scsi hdd=scsi hde=scsi hdf=scsi hdg=scsi hdh=scsi vga=0x314 initrd=c:\miniroot.gz quiet BOOT_IMAGE=knoppix
I have edited linuxrc as in step .4 but nothing changes. hda1 remains read only. ro appears only twice in the script, so there are few possibilities of mistake.Originally Posted by garyng
any further instructions or that is all?
thanks
that is the only thing I changed. Are you sure it is the modified miniroot.gz(thus the linuxrc) being loaded ? I usually put a line in it like "echo "gary's midification'" to make sure.

BTW, garyng, I was wondering the same thing (re: how did I become a KNOPPIX Master by just asking a ton of questions...!
