[KLUG Members] Help With Knoppix Floppy Boot

[Kevin Wixson]

Can someone help me with getting Knoppix to load on a laptop that can't 
boot from CD ROM. I have this darned Toshiba Tecra 500CDT that I'm trying 
to play with and in spite of my best efforts to now, I cannot get X 
configured to run. I want to know if it's even possible. I thought I would 
try with Knoppix.

However, every resource I've found for how to boot to Knoppix on a computer 
that can't boot from CD ROM refers to a floppy image on the CD that doesn't 
exist on the CD I have, which is version 3.4.

I'll appreciate any advice and support you're willing to give, but I would 
be especially grateful to anyone who could help me getting it going tonight 
at the meeting. I'll bring the Knoppix CD I have and some blank floppies. 
I'll be there for door duty, if you happen to be available before the meeting.
