laptop won't recognize CD
Hi all
I am trying to run Knoppix (3.4 & 3.7) on an old pentium 1 laptop with 40MB RAM. The laptop is sufficiently old that it can only have either the CD drive or the floppy drive in at one time. When I start up the system with the CD in the drive, it just hangs at the point when it should begin to boot Knoppix. My BIOS is set up correctly; I can boot PHLAK without problems and Knoppix STD without too much trouble. Knoppix 3.4 and 3.7, however, won't work at all. What is going on? Any ideas regarding what I should do? Thanks!
