ok, i've been browsing to find my self the anwser to my problem and got here so far... i've got an exact same problem with booting. it locks up while loading cd/dvd. first i thought it was a problem with the dvd, but when i got an exact problem with the cd i got confused. so can you please help me? it locks up showing: LOOKING FOR DVD IN dev/hdc _
while in failsafe it loads normaly in expert got pretty much the same result as running knoppix normaly with no extra comands. so i'm a bit confused :S

P.S. i've got HP Pavilion dv5111eu notebook.
