Knoppix won't boot on my laptop -- DVD is NOT bad - tested it on other laptop
Hi all,
I can't get the Knoppix 6.2 to boot on my Dell D620, running Window XP Professional. I bought the DVD from Knoppix.net and have tested it on my other newer laptop - an Acer running Windows 7 Home Premium. It boots on that laptop fine and runs perfectly from the DVD on my Acer. On my Acer, it's perfect -- boots, gets to the Knoppix desktop, runs all Linux apps.
On my Dell, I've followed the instructions -- inserted the DVD, pressed F12 for the One-time boot menu, selected to boot from the DVD. Then the Windows logo appears and starts booting into the Windows OS.
Help please!! This is driving me nuts. This SHOULD work.
