Just stick with the torrent. Leachers at the bottom of the list get lower download speeds, as you move up the list it gets faster. When I started the torrent client was saying it was going to take 78 hours to finish. I left it up overnight and it was finished the next morning. And PLEASE be courtious and leave your client up to seed others (At least untill you have given it to 2 others) i.e. pay it back. I am still seeding at:

And anyone else that is having problems with the torrent, when the upload is complete, email me, and I'll send you the link to the file. I have, of course, limited bandwidth with my host provider.

You got mail LHM ;)
I FINALLY got c't edition. Yay, it's so coooool.But in Kernel 2.6, I can't get my e-net card to work. Is there a way how?
this part i get, these are cut and dry prerequisites you need to perform before (and to) install knoppix with the 2.6 kernel to your HD.Quote:
Code:wget http://debian.tu-bs.de/knoppix/insta...lates-0.39.tgz
cp /usr/sbin/knoppix-installer .
sudo ./knoppix-installer
This is where things get a bit hazy for me. I'll be installing Knopping to partition /mnt/hda3 on my machine....Quote:
At first I could not figure out how you get it to boot 2.6 from a HD install though I just kept getting a kernel panic no init found no matter what init= I passed so I had to boot with the CD and edit lilo to show a prompt to boot the old .kernel. Then I changed to the /boot directory and ran mkinitrd -o linux-2.6.1.gz to make a new initrd then changed the initrd= line in the /etc/lilo.conf [to initrd=/boot/linux-2.6.1.gz and ran /sbin/lilo -v to write lilo and rebooted and Voila! kernel 2.6 on a HD install.
so assuming my installing goes typically the files will be in /dev/hda3 but i won't be able to boot into it. then I must...
boot from the CD ... when you say " edit lilo to show a prompt to boot the old .kernel" are you talking about editing lilo.conf on /mnt/hda3? this is where I get confused. Can you explain this n more detail?
I'm assuming as well you went to the boot directory in the /mnt/hda3 (as opposed to the boot directory from the live cd) to run the command to make the image.
editing lilo.conf and /etc/fstab are cake after that, it's the intermediate steps I'm a bit unclear on. any help would be appreciated.Quote:
Edit: And I had to add:
To the /etc/fstab as well to get the /sys mount needed for kernel 2.6 the directory /sys already existed so I did no have to create it.Code:## Needed for kernel 2.6
none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
In other words, do the install...then boot up under the cd and sudo kwrite /mnt/hda3/etc/lilo.conf and add a new boot option in lilo (you can label it Linux24 or something) and set it so that image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.23-xfs and initrd=/boot/initrd.gz. Of course you'll have to run /mnt/hda3/sbin/lilo -v to save the changes. Then reboot and choose the Linux24 and follow the rest of Stephen's directions for making the new initrd and all. It worked well for me.Quote:

Then change the file to look like this.Code:sudo mount /dev/hda3 /mnt/hda3
sudo kwrite /mnt/hda3/etc/lilo.conf
Next.Code:# message=/boot/bootmess.txt
prompt
# single-key
# delay=100
timeout=100
Then reboot and at the lilo screen choose the LinuxOLD option once booted make the new initrd.Code:sudo chroot /mnt/hda3/ /sbin/lilo -v
Edit lilo again to make the change for it and run /sbin/lilo -v to write to disk and you can now reboot to the new 2.6.1 what the section should look like after editing.Code:cd /boot

Password:
mkinitrd -o linux-2.6.1.gz

IS there any way to use Tulip.o in Knoppix Kernel 2.6? My ethernet card depends on Tulip.o to function. Can I just insmod the Tulip.o from my kernel 2.4 folder?
[quote="Stephen"]Stephen, would you mind schooling me a little here? Is this all that I had to do? I went through and actually created a new entry in lilo for the old kernel. It worked, but it was more work than this. I'm just curious how this works is all. :DCode:# message=/boot/bootmess.txt
prompt
# single-key
# delay=100
timeout=100
Sorry. I get terminally confused with this. I managed to test both kernels on the live cd and they're fine. I got the knoppix-installer.tgz file and can't get past that step in order to install with the 2.6 kernel. It'd be nice to do a step by step FAQ for those of us who are not as technically inclined.
Cheers!
