Figured it out. Just needed to reburn the .iso at a slower speed (4x).
I cannot get the CD (v.5.1.1) to boot with my Toshiba P105 laptop. It will boot successfully with the XP desktop machine. I have the boot order correctly configured in the BIOS, and I can boot from a Ghost recovery CD successfully, just not froml my Knoppix CD. It just boots Windows every time.
Is there some issue with Toshiba laptops that is known?
