My *other* OS is Windows 2000. I used WinRAR to extract all the files in the knoppix ISO into a folder on my hard-drive, as far as I can tell by viewing the folder with the files and comparing it to a burnt Knoppix CD there is no difference in the files.

So, I used Nero to burn the folder with all the files onto a CD, and once again with a comparison I see no major differences. The only difference I have seen so far is that the proper CD has a volume label of "Knoppix", and the improperly burn CD has a volume label of simply "new"(wich I think is actually empty).

The proper CD works without any trouble. However, for the improper CD, I made a boot floppy(using mkfloppy.bat, which was in the folder on my hard-drive that came from the ISO) and I currently believe I'm running off the "improper" CD(need to get a sharpie to label my CDs....).

What should I try to be able to boot off the "Improper" CD without using a boot disk(assuming there is any *easy* way)?

TIA, L J
