Though when I boot with the floppy, it seems to boot correctly.
Any idea's what I need to do??

You could just chainload to your knoppix install use:
Code:
other=/dev/hda4
label=Knoppix
in your Mandrake lilo and after having booted from the floppy /sbin/lilo -b /dev/hda4 to write lilo to your / partition instead of your MBR then when you select Knoppix from your Mandrake lilo you will get another lilo to boot the actual install. Alternatively you could copy vmlinuz from your /dev/hda4 root Knoppix directory to your Mandrake / and it will use that kernel image to boot with instead of trying to use your Mandrake kernel to boot the knoppix root you will most likely need to rename it something like vmlinuz-knoppix to stop it from overwriting your Mandrake one.
With the floppy error you should try to access it by just /floppy that should be there or if not then /dev/fd0 that is guarenteed to exist.
