Now, I'm a complete noob with linux, but i'm tired of windows, so I have to learn it :)

When I try to start my PC with the live-cd, it comes up with the error message "Can't find KNOPPIX filesystem, sorry." right after "Scanning for USB devices..."

I've tried starting with "dsl nousb", "failsafe" and "dsl nousb failsafe", but I still get the same error message.

Same error with both the 3.2 and the 3.3 RC1.

My connected USB devices is keyboard/mouse and a usb hub.

What seems to be the problem?

Tried "dsl toram" and "dsl tohd=/dev/hda1", but none of those worked either.

Still getting the same error message. :(
