I tried to boot knoppix 3.6 from the boot CD. I tell it to load from kernal 2.4 and everything seems to be runnging smotthly until "pcmcia found starting cardmgr" shows up. After that my CD-ROM drive stops and nothing more happens.

In addition to that, the computer runs REALLY hot when I'm trying to load the CD. It was running so hot at one point that the computer shut down to prevent itself from further overheating.

Anyone know anything about either of these problems?
