Have you tried the cheat codes noapm, nosmp and noapic does the apm work when you use the disk on the old P3 also have you tried knoppix testcd at the boot: prompt.
BTW there is a Knoppix France you may want to check also.
Hi everyone,
I have the lastest release of Knoppix (07/26/2003) and it doesn't want to boot on my computer :
P4C 2.4GHz (HyperThreading enabled)
2x512Mo DDR400 (Dual mode)
CM Asus P4P800 Deluxe (raid disabled)
2 HDD IBM IDE
1 DVD Pioneer IDE
1 Burner Philips IDE
Knoppix detects 2 CPU at the beginning and then I got the following error message :
APM BIOS found, power management function enabled
apmd[60] : main() : apm-open() failed : no such device
I tried to disable ACPI 2.0 support in my BIOS but the problem stay the same.
Thus, I also tried the failsafe mode but unhappily nothing better : booting goes a little further but the system hangs up after HDD mounting. Then if I hit the Enter key, I got a strange CPU dump.
Could you help me resolving this problem ?
Thanks.
PS : the CD works fine with my other PC PIII-500.

Yes, the CD works perfectly.
I've just found an issue to this problem : if I disable the APM (Advanced Power Management) in the BIOS, everything works fine... except the fact that HyperThreading is disabled in this case.
I have the error message : Error : only one CPU found.
Well, at least Knoppix is working ! I'll try to update my motherboard bios to see if something will change.
Thanks for Knoppix France link but there aren't as much skillfull people as here (and I can also use the little english I know).
I took the latest bios 1009 on Asus website and everything is OK now I'm writing with Knoppix right now.
Too bad, the integrated 3COM gigabit ethernet card 3C2000 wasn't detected so I had to compile the linux drivers.
Well, I think I'm going to make some tests
Good to hear you got it going, I can only wish I knew as little French as you do English it looks good enough to me.
