I am using lilo, and having the same issue. What version are you using?

Has anyone here tried remastering using the O'Reilly article instructions? I followed them (I think) except that I'm using GRUB instead of LILO as a bootloader. What happens? I got the CD copied to the hard drive and attempted a test boot of KNOPPIX from the drive. Well ... GRUB boots into the "boot floppy" area "/hardrive_boot" fine, the KNOPPIX boot kernel comes up and scans the disks ... but it can't find the KNOPPIX filesystem and drops into the restricted shell. Two questions:
1. Is there some magic I can type in that shell to tell it where KNOPPIX is?
2. Is there any documentation on the restricted shell??

1. I'm using KNOPPIX 3.3
2. I had a similar problem when I copied KNOPPIX to a hard drive and tried to boot it with a boot floppy. It turned out that I had the KNOPPIX directory buried one level too deep; apparently the scan only looks immediately below the partition for the KNOPPIX directory. That isn't the case in this instance.
Hmmmm ... case sensitivity / insensitivity????
Well ... good news ... I got it to work. It seems the partition where I put the CD image was ext3, and the boot floppy or its hard disk image in "hardrive_boot" doesn't deal with ext3 filesystems. When I reformatted it as ext2, everything worked like in the books.
Speaking of ext3 ... I just did a "knx-hdinstall" of *Quantian* (a Knoppix remaster) and it offered me the chance to install to an ext3 partition. The choices are ext2, ext3 and reiserfs. So ... I picked ext3 and it went a little bit, then croaked, complaining that the kernel didn't support ext3. It's not essential that I have ext3, but I've never messed with any of the other journaling filesystems. It seemed like a good idea at the time ...
Glad to hear it works. I'll go recheck my setup, but I am pretty sure its already ext2. I was thinking about trying it from a FAT partition just to try something else as well.
I'll try again. Which version of 3.3? I am using 11-19-03

I tried ext2, and it was not supported by the kernel either, so I had so settle with reiserfs. Trying KNOPPIX_V3.3-2003-11-19-EN.isoOriginally Posted by znmeb
