Hello world,

I just tried to use the cheatcodes tohd and fromhd, but encountered a problem. Of course I searched the forum for similar problems, but everyone but me seems to be happy with these cheatcodes ...

My boot prompt looked like this:

Code:
boot: knoppix dma tohd=hda1
After some seconds I get the message

Code:
Copying KNOPPIX CD-ROM failed. /dev/hda1 is not mountable.
cloop: unloaded.
Can't find KNOPPIX filesystem, sorry.
Then I'm dropped to a very limited shell.

hda1 is a 20GB FAT32 partition on an IDE drive with win2k on it. It is definitly OK - when I boot knoppix the "normal way" I can mount and work with it. Even the persistent homedir works fine.

I also tried it without the dma-cheatcode but the problem stays the same.

Any ideas what to look for?

Thanks in advance,

Alex
