USB booting :: boot frozen on "looking for knoppix image file in"

It would be "dsl xsetup" - see the wiki or the F2/F3 screen for more info.

heh.. what's the error now? :/

now... it just wont boot at all. bios keeps sayin boot error... failed to boot enter system disk and press enter. or remove any media and restart.

"don't panic" (-HGTTG)

go back to bios, don't use USB-FDD. see if it at least boots.

then try fromhd=/dev/sdb1

Yaaaaaaaaaaay... lol I'm responding from within DSL running from my USB drive.

Like you said humpty.... I used USB-zip instead of USB-FDD now... a device names USB HD001 was still on the hard disk priority list. So it booted, it found the knoppix file, and then I ran setupx.sh once inside linux and now my mouse is working.!

Thanks for all your help, this will really come in handy next time XP starts actin up.

Now... is there anyway to save the changes I'm making anywhere to the USB stick?

I'm just wondering why using USB-FDD worked before? o.o

To save your changes, look up the first page on dillo, or look in the wiki, or search for backup/restore.
