Knoppix Boot Problem On Emachine T2958
Hi! I recently downloaded and burned Knoppix 3.7. It worked well on my older Compaq Persario in my basement, but when I tried to load it on my newer Emachine it failed. It will not let me boot into any mode, even failsafe. As soon as linux26 loads the screen changes the cd stops spinning and it just hangs. The cd drive is fine, no problems there. When I boot into failsafe it loads at first, but then dumps a bunch of what looks like memory addresses at me. I've loaded Knoppix STD on this computer and it has worked. I also tried running Knoppix 3.6 too, but I had the same problem.
Specs for my emachine:
Microsoft® Windows® XP Home Edition
Intel® Celeron® D 330 Processor
Operates at 2.66 GHz
256KB L2 cache & 533 MHz FSB
Intel 845GV Chipset
512 MB DDR (PC 2100)
Expandable to 1 GB
80 GB HDD
48x Max. CD-RW Drive; 16x Max. DVD Drive
8-in-1 Digital Media Manager (USB 2.0, Secure Digital (SD), Smart Media, Compact Flash, Memory Stick, Memory Stick PRO, Micro Drive, Multimedia Card)
Intel® Extreme Graphics 3D
64MB Shared Memory
AC '97 Audio
Intel PRO 10/100 Mbps built-in Ethernet
56K* ITU v.92 ready Fax/Modem
Standard Multimedia Keyboard, 2-Button Wheel Mouse, Amplified Stereo Speakers
5 USB 2.0 ports (1 in Media Manager; 4 in back), 1 Serial, 1 Parallel, 2 PS/2, Audio-In & Out

Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
