I installed Knoppix 3.3 to my hp pc. It will not recognize my hard-drive second partition my DVD-rom drive, my Lexar Media USB Jumpdrive or my CD-RW. However it recognizes all of the devices when it is running from the bootable CD.
The mirror I downloaded it from was perdue.edu and the md5 file checked out.
what should I do how can I get Linux to recognize the partition (ext3), DVD-ROM, CDRW, and USB device?
