I am a newbie so please be patient. I burnt Knoppix on a cd and everytime I try to boot, it says the following:File D:/Knoppix v3.2-2003-09-05-EN.ISO does not reside on a local fixed drive. The source drive,"D" may not be able to supply data fast enough to write to a recorder. This could cause a buffer underrun and result in an unusable disc. Do you wish to continue? I click yes and nothing happens.
Please tell me what I am doing wrong and what I can do to correct it.
Thank you

This is a pretty wierd message. Did you set the bios order to boot from CD first?
No I did not. Please tell me how.
thank you

When you boot you usually see a message telling you something like hit DEL or some other key to enter the setup. Before you do that though you are going to have to burn the disk properly though right now you have burned just the ISO file to the disk. You should look for the option in your burning program to make a bootable disk from an ISO image or something similar. BTW if you are on a high speed connection you may want to download a new ISO the latest version of knoppix is 3.3 on 2003-09-24.Quote:

If you CD-Rom is your D: drive, it sounds to me like you literally burned the iso file onto the CD rather than creating a CD from the iso.
Boot into Windows first, then put the CD in the drive. The go to My Computer and click the CD (D:). What do you see as teh contents?
It says:Files currently on the cd. I double clicked it and it said Windows can't open this file.

Umm---it didn't show this:
Knoppix v3.2-2003-09-05-EN.ISO
In the window?
Hmmm....
I just re-read your original post again.
What burning software are you using? If I have it, I'll post you a tutorial on exactly what to do.
Also, although it doesn't really matter, what OS are you using?
Roxio Easy CD+DVD Creator Ver. 6
Windows XP Home
