Hi
This is not my first knoppix experience. I have started using knoppix with v 3.2
I have trouble to free my dvd-device with current Knoppix DVD 4.0.2
I can not copy the KNOPPIX directory to /dev/hda1 or /dev/hda5 (both NTFS-formated) under WinXP and get them used/mounted
using "knoppix bootfrom=/dev/hdax" with x=1 or 5.
No problem, on NTFS one can use bootfrom parameter to boot the iso-Image. I was able to do this with all Knoppix cdroms from
the 3.x series that support the feature. But with the DVD i get:

boot: knoppix bootfrom=/dev/hda1/knoppix.iso
. . .
Scanning for USB/Firewire devices... Done.
Accessing KNOPPIX DVD at /dev/hdc
Found primary KNOPPIX compressed at /cdrom/KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX.
Found additional KNOPPIX compressed at /cdrom/KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX2.
Accessing KNOPPIX DVD at /cdrom2.loop/knoppix.iso... Error: Module cloop is in use
umount: Device or resource busy
insmod: error inserting 'modules/cloop.ko': -1 File exists

No matter, if i put the iso-Image to /dev/hda1 or /dev/hda5.

System is a Intel P4@3GHz.
Anny suggestion on how to start and have the dvd-device freed? Ram is just 512 MB, so toram is no good.

P.S.: I have checked md5sum of the iso, booting form DVD an working with linux is possible, just not getting the DVD out of the device.
