I have read and followed your instructions. It loaded and I received the business card then the press enter to continue.

After that its states that can not find knoppix filesystem.

Any solution and second question can you modify the logo.16 and if so with what program and what is the resolution that you should do it at. Thanks for all the info prior to this. :cool:

Quoting 3p0cHx:
--
c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe - syslinux -s h:
An application has attempted to directly access the hard disk, which cannot be supported. This may cause the application to function incorrectly. Choose "Close' to terminate the application.
--
To further explain what roberts is saying, just typing 'syslinux' will run syslinux.com, which is also in the directory and seems intended for DOS-based operating systems. Typing

syslinux.exe -s h:

worked on Windows XP for me.

I have actually not received the error even when I didnt add the .exe at the end. The steps I have followed were that I downloaded the iso file used a program to extract the knoppix folder on to the usb drive then I opened the bootusb.* and extracted that on to the usb then I ran the syslinux -s f: and I still can not load past the "can not find the knoppix file system" error. I am getting the loading usb modules then a bunch of stuff flys by then the error I am going to try a different iso and see if it makes a difference. By the way I have skiped the floppy step as far as booting it from the floppy simply for the fact that I do not have one.
Thank you for all of your help every one. :cool:

It is always best to test with floppy on another machine. Makes trouble shooting easier. I knew I had things setup right, but still not booting, I had to go into bios and also set USB keyboard. I don't have a USB keyboard. But that was trick that worked for me. So I had to set both USB-ZIP and USB-KEYBOARD. Also this worked for me on a USB-2.0 pendrive.
