The isolinux.cfg of 0.7.9.1 was lacking a default value. At the 'knoppix'
prompt, you need to type linux26 or linux24 depending which kernel you want.
This was discussed on the list, and is documented on the bugs page.

But you could also try 0.7.9.2 which was just released. It should boot fine.

Klaus Knopper has no 64bit version, and there is no 64bit openMosix, so there
is little I could build on. So I'm afraid the answer is no.

Hope this helps, Dirk
