Ndiswrapper works fine in knoppix 4.0 using the same drivers and setup. What is wrong? Do I need to install a new ndiswrapper over it?
I have to load "boot: knoppix nohwsetup home=/dev/sdb1/knoppix" to prevent hardware configuration from hanging.

I got the same message in KDE ndiswrapper. Furthermore, when I use ndiswrapper as root in Konsole, the driver will install and then the session hangs up when I enter

ndiswrapper -l

I wrote a script that worked perfectly in PCLOS. I like Knoppix better, except for this , and so I'd like to get it to work. There was mention in the PCLOS Wiki of a package called "wireless tools." I've done everything in Knoppix that I did in PCLOS and these problems come up (i.e., I have all the necessary files in the directory, etc.)

Is there a way I can boot that will detect the device without hanging up the whole boot process?

Thanks,
