I'm trying to boot Knoppix 5.1.1 on a HP Pavillion dv5000 laptop, and after I press Enter at the main Knoppix boot screen, I get
Loading Linux .................................................. ................
Loading minitrg.gz (I think that's what it says, it's not displayed long) ...........................................

And then the screen goes blank and just sits there, nothing happens.

I just burned this Knoppix CD on another laptop, my Dell Inspiron E1705 and the CD boots just fine. But I can't get the CD to boot on the computer I need it for!

Are there any known issues or workarounds for this? I am in desperate need, as this is for a recovery mission!

Thanks.
