Hi,

I want to boot the knoppix form the hard disk rather cd-rom. As i search lot of sites for the tips to boot knoppix from hard disk and i found 3 tip , but these are not working.

The following are the command followed by error messages

1) i went into the following directory c:\knoppix\boot\isolinux after booting from the bootable cd and i typed the following command

2)According to second tip i booted from the knoppix cd and typed the following command

Code:
boot:knoppix tohd=/dev/hda2
ERROR:

3)i have .iso file in my system, so following the thrid tip i booted from the knoppix cd and typed the following command
