Koppix 6.2.0 ISO boot with large memory (>4GB) Linux kern
Hello,
For those of you who just like me value a lot Knoppix (thanks Klaus for your hard work) and use it every other day
as a base platform for development or as a rescue OS, but would like the Kernel to support all the system memory
(or in other words recognize more than 4GB of memory), I would like to offer and share my work around solution:
http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtop...=121968#121968 (37MB zip file)
I use a new initrd and Linux Kernel (with the large memory model) allowing to patch (using the unionfs and a cloop) at boot time
the official Knoppix ISO with the new recompiled Kernel modules (required by the new Kernel) in order to have a working system.
Besides allowing for customizations and add-ons, the ISO boot method (from a hdd or a USB dongle) is also much faster
than using a CD/DVD drive which may not even exist on some new systems.
Happy New Year !
Gilles
