I took the boot parameter to 'dsl 2 toram'. When system burned on the CD, anything was O.K. But I put the system on the Compact Flash. When the system copied to the ram, it could not find the 'knoppix file'. When I omited the parameter 'toram', anything was o.k. Why? And also how to solve it? Anyone can help me?

Hi amarui,
            The sysmptom is same. It showed that it could not find the KNOPPIX filesystem although I tried to 'knoppix 2 toram' . Is any other solution or suggestion for me? Thanks.

I used the Damnsmall 0.6.2 version. The sympton is same. But more information showed on the screen. The following is the error message:

Accessing knoppix CDROM at /dev/hda1... (I used the compact flash IDE adapter to boot from system so it become a /dev/hda1.)
Copying knoppix CDROM to RAMDisk...
/bin/cp:writing '/cdrom2/knoppix/boot.img' :no space left on device
/bin/cp:writing '/cdrom2/knoppix/mkfloppy.bat: no space left on device
/bin/cp: ...
...
#knoppix

There are two questions. One is why it copies from cdrom2. There is no this device. The other is why there is no space. I have enough RAM on the PC. If the system burns on the CD with same configuartion, the booting process is o.k. That means the 'toram' parameter cannot use in the compact flash device? Is it a bug?
I need to put the system on the RAM since I require more fast response for the application. I want to use this Linux system to remote control some hardware devices. I need not any harddisk and cdrom  drive. The control system will be more reliable and small. Anybody can give me more suggestion and solution? Thanks!
