For the second one:
You can be the first one that can try the new "nofstab" cheatcode ;-).
You can also boot with "knoppix26 modules-disk" to just choose your SCSI-controller... (the name is misleading)

hi;
i just d/led it from the knoppix site and 2.6 doesn't get past scsi prob

I didn't wait long though may not be stuck.
2.4 still works with my hardware useing it now to write this.
my hardware is:

amd 1400 cpu
nvidia geforce 2 mx 64meg

anyway I think most of us still enjoy the latest 2.4.x kernel and KDE 3.2.2 and other new features :D
I too have not been able to load the 2.6 kernel on the live cd boot I get the megaraid segmentation fault and then it freezes. On the hd install I can boot 2.4 flawlessly and 2.6 fails to load the scsi drivers. Otherwise it works ok. I do the expert26 boot option and the ncr53c8xx.o driver is not an option. However 2.4 loads this for my card.
Now for the good news...... my 5 button mouse works now.
Now off to get the realtek 8180 wlan card working.
I'm sure this SCSI issue will be fixed in the updated 3.4. Thanks for all the hard work getting the eagerly awaited 3.4 release out to the masses.

net problem ended up posting twice, sorry.
RU Kidding??? This thing is AWESOME. You guys outdid yourselves this time. I set Linux aside until I could check out 2.6.Quote:

This is so cool.
yes knoppix 3.4 is great ~!
and dear all, if you see "megaraid segmentation fault" message and stop when booting kernel 2.6, try using boot parameter "noscsi" :D
*well sorry for those who want to try it with an SCSI connected PC..
and Fabian, trust me we all love this new Knoppix 3.4 :-D if we don't we won' t spend our time testing it.. :P
we just want things to became better and better
*(actually I guess some bugs are from the new 5 months old kernel it self, also do you think the hardware detection program also needs to adapt to the newer kernel and new C++ compiler ??)
best regards to you all
here from charles :lol:
HI there,
3.4 works fine on cd, i've just have to add noscsi with linux26.
When i install to hd in begginer mode, i get no network card(PCMCIA) working with kernel 2.6.5
If i install in Knoppix mode, everything works fine...
How can i solve this problem????
Tks

good luck...
