im having the same knoppix booting problem and nothing is fixing it.

elaboration does tend to help, but i think our problems are fundamentally different.

I wasn't having a booting problem as such. It was a problem mainly with getting the 'home=' cli option to pass correctly. Whether it was pointed at the hdd partition by device name or directory name, it would always bypass the option. Other issues were on a more minor level, but irritating none the less.

The 'myconfig=' cli option would work though, so my eventual work around was to edit the associated 'knoppix.sh' script to mount the knoppix.img file and copy it over to ram from its' mount. But eventually i just started using the configs.tbz file instead. Not just to configure 'home' but also TZ and language settings, along with X.

Kde also, wouldn't offer to save a knoppix.img to a hdd partition as well. But xfce4 would.

Curiously, there are differences between the knoppix-autoconfig files between v4 and v5, but nothing that would seem to reflect why. At least from what i've been able to detect in the limited time windows that iv'e had to look at it.

The hdd install also required considerable tweaking to stabilise as well (grin). All that doesn't really worry me though, as i saw it as at least an opportunity to trace out why. And that actually hasn't been achieved as yet.

But at least i got a degree of confirmation, in that it seems there was a buggy image available initially at release time. Which i can only assume, was the one i was using (grin).

As your mentioning an iso burn, i figure our issues are probably quite different though. Even with burned images, there does seem to be a contrast of experiences among the posts, possibly all hw issues. Or burn issues. It isn't always very clear.

My image, as stated, was from a magazine disc. So burn a issue would n't apply. And i must say, i take issue with the insulting alludation in HKs' post above.

You mention Ubuntu ... you have problems booting that ! ... It would be curious to know just what it is about your board that may/may not, be behind that.

In any case Good Luck
