User Feedback :: Problem booting DSL

...actually, I'm running 98, not 95, srry, my mistake.   And, another thing: I try to rename the file to be in caps, and it goes back to lower-case letters.   Thus, it doesn't find the file.   Any suggestions?

I have read that you need to do it within DOS to get the name change to stick.  The best way would probably be to:
start win98 (or hold left cntrl key during startup to get boot menu, or use the F8 key when booting).  
Shutdown to command prompt only.  
cd \knoppix
move knoppix k1  
move k1 KNOPPIX
reboot.
(k1 can be anything as long as it is not the word knoppix)

...um, that didn't work.   I did what you said, but when I went back into Windows, the file was still Knoppix.   Err, wait - I think I did it wrong... I'll keep you notified.   ;)

When you go back into windows it will show the lowercase no matter what you do.  You may have to change the directory name to all upper case as well.  I didn't think you did but I am not positive.
