Hi all,
This is my first dip of a toe into linux, so I hope you'll bear with me if I haven't exhausted the troubleshooting options I should have known about.
I'm trying to boot knoppix 3.3 (9/24/03 beta), and it hangs at
So I tried booting with theCode:apmd[60]: main(): apm_open() failed: no such device.
command, but then the machine POSTs instead of hangs at the same place.Code:knoppix lang=us noapm
hangs at the same apmd error message as without failsafe.Code:knoppix lang=us failsafe
hangs at "Skipping APM BIOS detection as requested on boot command line".Code:knoppix lang=us noapm failsafe
[code]
Specs:

Doesn't help.gets me a POST.Code:knoppix lang=us noapm nosmp noapic
Wait a second - now it booted properly all by itself while I was typing this in on the other machine - is a reboot an expected part of the process?
It rebooted after it was stalled during bootup and worked? That is kindof odd. I do not know.
yes, it boots fine if I wait for it to auto-startup (although my sound card doesn't work), but any command line (even just lang=us) will cause it to hang. I have verified this on several restarts.
I don't get it, either. But try appending alsa to the
knoppix lang=us noapm nosmp noapic
line:
knoppix lang=us noapm nosmp noapic alsa
and see if that gets your sound going.
I can't. It will only boot with no command line at all.
I'm guessing it has something to do with my USB keyboard, and my motherboard's handling of it in DOS mode. I'll dig a PS/2 one out of the closet to test one of these days.
