Hi. I downloaded and burned the Knoppix cd yesterday and it loads fine on my old machine: AMD K6-2 500, Ax59pro, 320MB, 6 & 30 GIG, Liteon CD, AOpen CRW1232pro, SB 16, Diamond Stealth S111 540 AGP,...
It won't load on my newer machine: Athlon XP1800+, ECS K7VMM, 256MB, 40 GIG, Liteon DVD, Atapi CD-RW, integrated audio and lan, ATI TV Wonder, SIS 315 AG AGP,...
I have tried many of the cheat codes and when I use vga=normal I get as far as: uncompressing Linux...OK, booting the kernel. Nothing after that. Failsafe gets me to a page of text with: ESR value before enabling vector : 00000002. The cursor blinks at the bottom of this page and then nothing else happens. Most of the other codes get me to: loading vmlinu2.........loading miniroot.gz............ then I just get a pale green screen and nothing else. I'm sure hoping someone can help me out. Thanks. PS: I tried disabling the sound and the TV Wonder card too.
