I made these observations and assumptions:

I tried to boot knoppix on three separate computers.

I recently loaded RH 8.0 on these all of these computers in a dual boot
configuration.

The boot process w/RH was flawless and there have been no modifications to
the BIOS.

I tried to boot knoppix on a fourth computer that was not dual boot and
nothing happened.

When I insert the knoppix CD in my CDROM drive it autoruns and a dos window
opens with the title 'Finished-autorun,' then mozilla opens to the
index.html.

Under the English version of the info page it says:
    * Put this CD into the CD drive.
    * Make sure the BIOS is set up to boot from CD (before the hard disk)
    * Restart your computer.

I assume that, as long as there is no boot floppy in the floppy drive, that
the precedence of booting, from a floppy or a CD, doesn't matter.  I will
try changing the order.

I conclude that there is something wrong with the knoppix 3.1 disk.

I hope to get Knoppix 3.2 from someone in the near future, as I don't have a
high speed connection any more.

Thanks For the suggestions, any others?

Brian
