hit F2 when you guys boot and tell it to use frame buffering FB1024x768
just try it once see what happens.
other than that the only oddity i found was in the syslinux.cfg file it shows the knoppix file as being in the root of the drive which its not, technically, and since linux is exact when it comes to locations.
the knoppix file is actually located in KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX its inside the knoppix folder.
also notice that its case sensative. its not knoppix its KNOPPIX
you may want to boot into your regular OS and change that line to either CAPS or KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX and see whats happening.
i can only boot 2 ways.
1 is if i boot from a floppy using the usbboot.img file, because it knows to look for a pendrive.
or
by copying the files off of the floppy onto the root of the pen drive.
now another thing i mentioned in another thread was the fact that i was not able to boot at all if i copies the boot folder onto the pen drive. once i removed that it started working a little better.
i dont know why but its jsut the way it was.
i know im probably doing things very wrong but thats just my experiences
also if i try to use frugal in the boot command line it will always fail to boot. with the exact same error the other chap has.
i can not use frugal which i thought was the only way to make the pen drive writable.
why is this. and how do i go about properly booting to a writeable pen drive.?
