i'm interested in knoppix live. Don't know much about it so i might don't really know what i'm talking about but,

downloaded it off the internet,
burnt it to a cd

but i can't get it to boot. how do i? I set to boot from the cdrom after the removables (floppies i guess)

what am i doing wrong?

like i said i have no idea what i am doing, but interested to learn

thanks

Did you confirm a uncorrupt download by checking the md5 sum?
Did you burn it "as an image"?
Did you burn it at a nice slow speed like 4x?
There is a Downloading FAQ found by follwing the documentation link at the top of this page that will give you more details on how to properly burn the iso.
