Knoppix 3.4 Has Landed

To run the lk 2.6.5 kernel in knoppix 3.4 you need to write "knoppix26" at the kernel boot line (at least in the version I have). Furthermore, on my hardware (IBM T22) it attempted to load the megaraid.ko module and that oopsed and froze. Adding "noscsi" to the boot line got around that.

Knoppix 3.4 oopsing on the megaraid.ko module, boot.img

Yes, I found that noscsi is essential with knoppix26 on three different machines and also on VMWare; I guess the team will fix this in a new release in the near term.

Another thing is that boot.img seems to be missing (although the cheatcodes document refers to it). I need this to boot from floppy on machines with "reborn" cards, and on machines where the BIOS is locked and does not select the CD as the first boot device. Unfortunately, where I work all the lecture theatre computers have these "reborn" cards, so I am sticking with Knoppix 3.3 till I have time to make a floppy boot disk.
