> also it doesn't use a boot.img for floppy emulation, it uses isolinux to boot instead. this threw me for a loop until i found why my earlier mkisofs switches didn't work with 3.4. now all is well.
Yeah, I've been working on a remastering of Knoppix 3.4 for some
specialized applications. Has not been for hard drive installation.
A few bones to pick over it, but nothing unusual (like why in heaven's name
are they still using "pump"). Had to dump some apps and install some
apps and then do some extensive cleanup. But it works and I've got a
couple of machines now permanently running Knoppix (booted from the CD
though) as part of the development environment. It's all running 2.6
exclusively and I had to reset the default in the bootup (Knoppix 3.4
has the 2.6 kernel but defaults to a 2.4 kernel).
I LIKE the fact that they (and LNX-BBC and several others)
have now switched to isolinux instead of syslinux. One less thing
I have to port and change and make work (isolinux has several features
like chain loading which were never implimented in syslinux).
