Gateway Solo 5100 won't boot
I've been using Knoppix for quite some time now, and when I acquired an older Solo 5100 from a family member, I decided that using a live CD would be the best way to maximize the small hard disk size. However, with nearly every single disk I've tried, the computer hangs after the "Looking for CD in /dev/hdc" message. The disk is fine; it boots on my desktop, and doing "knoppix testcd" confirmed that there is nothing wrong with the disk. "failsafe" boots fine, but I'd like to be able to, at the very least, use PCMCIA for my wireless network and compact flash adapter. Any ideas?
