How to get Knoppix up and running on a IBM TP 760EL!?

Hey!

I would like to use my old 760EL with Knoppix but I'm running into problems. The Notebook (133MHz, 32MB RAM, 2GB HD by the way) got an external Floppy and a non-bootable CD-ROM in an UltraBay.

I created the bootdisk but all I get is a "Boot failed: pls change disks... " error. I suppose the CD-ROM with all the data is not found?!

Could anyone pint me into the right direction pls?

Thx in advance

Sven

I've got v3.2-2003-07-26.EN running on a 760EL. Nothing special to make it boot other than use a boot floppy. Perhaps your floppy boot was corrupt.

To make X run, It took a while to discover on the slow booting machine that you should use the following cheat codes.:

knoppix screen=800x600 fb800x600

Seems a bit redundant, but it boots into X in a little while. Haven't got the sound configured yet, but it is still usable. A linksys "wired" networking card works fine with no additional configuration.

Hope that helps
