hi to all, i'm another newbie, and obviously i've got my problem to tell you. I've read some parts of the faq, but not all, anyway the knoppix cd starts and goes until the autoconfiguring hardware... the bar arrives to 100% and it says 'done'... after the computer stops.
Is a ntfs problem? I try the normal way (knoppix lang=it) and the failsafe, but every time it stops in that point, there are no errors anyway before this event, it recognizes cpu,ram,usb,hd and cdrom.
The Pc hasn't problems with xp or mandrake.

My Configuration:
Amd Duron 850mhz
Motherboard Asus a7v133 + Ata100promise (is it the problem?) + integrated audio (disabled)
256 ram sdram
geforce 2mx
sound blaster 5.1
hd maxtor 60gb (with 3 ntfs partitions, only one with os)
cd liteon 32x12x40
cd lg 52x
monitor compaq 1024 not plug and play

other components disabled during booting:
modem adsl ericcson (mandrake recognizes it)
printer canon bj6200
joystick trust

thanks for helping, and sorry for :
1 - my english
2 - if this problem was yet resolved by someone else but i haven't found nothing in faq/bugs sections, probably i haven't done a good search.
bye
