I have to boot the knoppix 3.4 cd with knoppix no dhcp else it hangs when it times out trying to deal with dhcp.

I've tried everything I know (not much) to connect to the net.

On other distros/live cds I just need to activate the eth0 card as the router/modem takes care of eberything else.

how do i do this in knoppix?

Thanks in advance
