Ok, I just installed Knoppix 3.3 to the hard drive.
I rebooted, and was greeting with the message
L 07
at the top of the screen. thats all. I suspect that there is a problem with my boot partition (7 mb big)
I did not make a boot floppy because I don't have any working floppy disks. Question: how do I fix this?
