I can't boot from knoppix DVD. It gets to the hardware detection phase, then says "can't find knoppix filesystem, sorry." I can get to the boot: prompt, though. The CD version works fine. I suspect that my BIOS can't see past the first 700MB (thinking my DVD drive is a CD drive), because I have the same problem with Ubuntu, except that gives me "buffer i/o error on device hdc".

Is there a boot floppy I can download so I can use a floppy to boot up the DVD version? I have no other computer to start up this knoppix DVD and run 'mkbootfloppy', so i would like another way. Can I make a boot floppy from the knoppix 5.0 CD version?
