yeah i have tried that too (knoppix floppyconfig), and it says it cant find config files - i think that is for a different kind of configuration, No? What seems to be happening with "knoppix myconfig=/mnt/auto/floppy", is that the Automount of floppy and cdrom, happens after it tries to load myconfig off of the floppy, and hence it doesnt work. So does anyone know a way of making the floppy automount first? is there any boot code for that?
