User Feedback :: problems booting DSL



I try to boot DSL 0.9.2 syslinux on HP Vectra XU 6/150. its with scsi cdrom. But I canīt. It shows me:

Canīt find KNOPPIX filesistem, sorry.

and drops mi in limited shell

Whatīs wrong. What to do?

DSL probably doesn't detect and search for your SCSI cdrom device.

You could try to create a custom boot floppy and modify the scripts inside the minirt.gz file in order to get it to look at your CDROM device.

Or you can do this:

Use an existing or create a new FAT or FAT32 partition on your computer (usually your C:\ drive for a MSDOS/Win95/Win98/WinME computer system).
Boot into your other OS and copy over the \knoppix folder in your CD-R disk so that the file is located here:

c:\knoppix\knoppix

Then reboot with the boot floppy or boot from your existing livecd.

Good Luck.
