Re: Booting From [NTFS] Partition

in the menu.lst file is says put the iso here: # Copy the also the 700MB knoppix ISO file into c:\boot\knoppix.37\ directory
but in the tutorial it says put it here: c:\boot\knoppix.36\. I have Knoppix 3.8.2. So I put the ISO in all 3 folders just in case, so the iso is in c:\boot\knoppix.37\ and c:\boot\knoppix.36\ and c:\boot\knoppix.381\. So, I restart my comp, run GRUB, then choose the Knoppix 3.8.1 ISO option, and I get that error, so I tried all of the otions and still get the error.
Any ideas?
Well, first you should check that grub is starting: do you get the grub menu ?
If not, there is something wrong with your boot.ini or grldr file in the root of your boot drive.
If yes then you shoul have something like this somewhere in your c:\boot\grub\menu.lst:
title Knoppix 3.8.2 kernel 2.6 from NTFS hda1 ISO
kernel (hd0,0)/boot/knoppix.382/linux ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init lang=us apm=power-off vga=794 nomce quiet bootfrom=/dev/hda1/boot/knoppix.382/*.iso noprompt dma screen=1280x1024 (all in a single line)
initrd (hd0,0)/boot/knoppix.382/minirt_ntfs.gz
boot
and obviously you should have a directory c:\boot\knoppix.382 in which you have the 3 files: minirt_ntfs.gz, linux, and KNOPPIX_V3.8.2-2005-05-05-EN.iso. You can get the 2 first files from this link: http://s119307663.onlinehome.us/Knoppix382.zip

Hope this will help. Cheers, Gilles
