hi
how can i boot knoppix and other ISO filez from my HDD without extract or install the ISO file
i don't have cd-room so how can i make afloppy disk to boot the desired ISO from HDD
another Question
what i type 2 knoppix prompt to boot root shell only not graphical interface KDE?
you can do
a.) HDD install
b.) have knoppix on a USB stick...
spid3r,
My guess is, check out the ¨Documentation¨ section, found here on this site - either that - or do a search for the topic within Knoppix.net
What issues you have with your systems configuration, i.e. not having a CD-ROM device, have come up in these forums before, and I am quite sure that they had gotten a resolve for it. Not sure if the resolve made it into documentation, or not, hence the thoughts of checking the Documentation first, and then falling back to searching the forums.
What you will need, from what I can figure, is: a floppy that boots Knoppix ( partly, and enough to ¨point it¨ over to the hard drive ), and the ISO image on the hard drive. Ive never done this, but have heard people doing it - so it can be done... And it doesnt require you to hard drive ¨INSTALL¨ Knoppix on your system.
Hope this has helped, a little,
Ms. Cuddles
