Time has pass and still I canīt boot!
Well I will post my problem again in orther to get closer to the end of the trouble.
I have a PIII 450 Mhz. Mother PCCHIPS 478LMR all on board except the mothem. A HD samsumg 8 Gb. A CD Reader Samsumg, and a sony CD RW (16x8x32).
Well Iīve tried many times booting Knoppix but I have any succes.
When I starts using EXPERT I reach the part that said:
SCSI0=last updates emulations for ide atapi devives
Some things I could read while booting that seem errors was:
......
partition check:
hda=hda1
ide: late registration of driver
......
When I use FAILSAFE it says:
Welcome to K.O.P.P.I.X linux live linux-on-cd!
Looking for cdrom in: /dev/hdb
and it hungs.
When I starts using:
knoppix vga=normal screen=800x600 ram=120M desktop=icewm
It says:
loading vmlinuz..........
loading miniroot.gz.........
Rady
Uncomoresing linux....OK booting the kernell
It makes a little screen movement and thats all.
When I starts without VGA=normal, Tux appears and thats it!
I will be very pleased if you help me!
Thaks in advance.
replace the system - keep the cd
i think you should replace the system and then try the same CD. i know for sure that CD is good and dont know much about your system
hope this helps.

!?!!???!!!
Seriously, what knoppix version? You might try an older version, there have been some changes with CD access since the 2.6 kernel that might be affecting your startup.
Also, try the CD in a different computer. Always possible it's a dodgy burn.
