After a couple of days of false starts, I've finally got a cd that finds the knoppix filesystem. The issue that I'm having now is that I can't get much farther.

Boot log is (partially):

Code:

The 'no space left on device' messages continue for a bit until "starting init process." then there's a "printk 45 messages suppressed' and then a kernel panic.

The normal 4.0.2 cd boots fine in this system. Have I missed a step somewhere?

The filesystems on my cd and the 4.0.2 cd look identical when mounted on a pre-booted system.

Is there a remaster from hd howto for 4.x somewhere?

Thank you.
