- removed some scsi modules from the regular knoppix26 (Kernel 2.6) startup
because they are unstable. Use "expert26" to load them.
- Added script for generating bootfloppies in Knoppix "Utilities" menu
- Harddisk installer update from Fabian Franz
- "knoppix splash" fixes
- timezone and language setting add-ons
- added linlinc1 for captive-ntfs for download capabilities
- changed some e100/eepro100 network driver entries in hardware detection
- the usual debian package updates

and for those use parameter "acpi=off" to boot kernel 2.6, you might also wish to try it with "acpi=ht"
Add acpi=ht, meaning run ACPI boot setup, but do not enable the interpreter.
A mirror that has the files ATM.

Hi
as with the first 3.4 release I am not able to boot 2 PC's with the 2.6 kernel. Both of them boot properly with the 2.4 kernel.
With 2.6 the PC's freeze completely (not even Ctrl-Alt-Del work) on the network adapter:
...
Network device eth0 detected, DHCP broadcasting for IP
...
Both PC's have a Netgear FA310-TX card (DEC 2114x) which has worked with Xandros, Debian and Mandrake 10(with 2.6 kernel). With the 2.4 kernels it usually used the tulip driver from D.Becker but with Knoppix 3.4 and kernel 2.4 it actually uses:
...
eth0: DC21140 at 0xec00 (PCI bus 0, device 9), h/w address 00:40:05:42:c3:40,
and requires IRQ15 (provided by PCI BIOS).
de4x5.c:V0.546 2001/02/22 [email protected]
...
Will get Mandrake 10 back on one of these to see what they are using in their 2.6 kernel.
P.S. Mandrake 10 is using the tulip driver:
....
Linux Tulip driver version 1.1.13 (May 11, 2002)
PCI: Found IRQ 15 for device 0000:00:09.0
tulip0: EEPROM default media type Autosense.
tulip0: Index #0 - Media MII (#11) described by a 21140 MII PHY (1) block.
tulip0: MII transceiver #0 config 1000 status 782d advertising 01e1.
eth0: Digital DS21140 Tulip rev 34 at 0xec00, 00:40:05:42:C3:40, IRQ 15.
....

I'm no expert but maybe this will help.Quote:

This loads the Linux 2.6 kernel without SCSI detection, which is where Knoppix hung on my computer.
Is it possible to do an "upgrade" from the previous knoppix 3.4 iso to the current one without downloading the newer iso?

Unfortunately not. I guess, it would be possible to use rsync, if the image was compressed with an rsync-aware gzip (or zlib). This would increase the size of the image with a few percent. That could be a problem, because the size cannot grow much, if it should fit on a cd-rom
Well, not too worry, I have ADSL & rewriteable CDs!Quote:
