Knoppix wont fully load
My setup:
Asus A7M266-VM
Athlon XP 1700+
GeForce 2 GTS 32 meg
nForce audio
256 megs PC2100 ram
Windows XP Pro on a NTFS formatted HD
Knoppix looks like it detects all my stuff fine, and the xwindowing environment (KDM?) starts to load, and it gets to the point where it's setting up peripherals (the mouse icon is highlighted) but then it just locks up. CD spins down, mouse doesnt respond, keyboard lights dont work, etc... ideas? I unplugged my USB Joystick and HP Printer just incase those might be doing something, but that didnt work. I also removed the spare network card I had in my machine that I wasnt using, still no go.
It's not the CD, because I tried it on my dad's computer and it worked fine.
On a slightly different topic, what's involved in setting up a XP, Linux dual boot on an NTFS drive? I assume I will have to get Partition Magic, and set aside some free space for Linux to create a partition, but beyond that, I'm clueless. Total Linux newbie.
