1. get into the boot.img and extract the vmlinuz and miniroot.gz file(there is a FAQ on this site under DOC) and put them on your c:\(or /dev/hda1)

OK, I got these files off the boot disk. I put them along with the huge KNOPPIX file off the burned CD as well as loadlin.exe and a batch file with the following line in it.

loadlin.exe vmlinuz lang=en init=/etc/init initrd=c:\miniroot.gz quiet BOOT_IMAGE=knoppix

I start up the batch file and the PC reboots into KNOPPIX just like off the CD loading into the ramdisk, autodetecting everything and it even runs faster! The only problem is that this locks up the hdd as busy just like the CD used to be (well this frees up the CD drive). Also, this works on WIN95 and WIN98 but its a pain on WINME as you have to boot the rescue disk to get into DOS real mode (I was trying to get away from a boot disk that slows down the boot process).

My question now is, can I do this on a WINXP machine? I'm getting some of those next year in a new lab at school.

Thanx,
