I think this is a Knoppix problem, but maybe someone here can help.
I checked the Knoppix forum, and the question has been asked several
times, but no answer given.
I can boot from my new DVD almost fine (doesn't yet find my home and
myconfig on USB flash stick ... I'll look at that later)
I put the iso on c:\ and tried bootfrom=/dev/hda1/quantian.iso. This
worked fine for the previous Quantian.
The new one fails, falling back to install from the DVD:
----------------------------
Accessing KNOPPIX DVD at /dev/hdc
Found primary KNOPPIX compressed at /cdrom/KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX.
Found additional KNOPPIX compressed at /cdrom/KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX2.
Accessing KNOPPIX DVD at /cdrom2.loop/knoppix.iso... Error: Module cloop
is in use
umount: Device or resource busy
insmod: error inserting 'modules/cloop.ko': -1 File exists
--------------------------------------
ideas?
also, ideas on where to ask this on a Knoppix forum so that it would get
the attention of someone who can help?
I'm considering a Poor Man's Install
(http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/Win_Partition), but ... well, bootfrom
should work, right?
